Hello community,

I'm moving from an FX-6100 to an FX-8350 and i need some advice about upgrading my motherboard, since my actual doesn't support 125W CPUs.

I'm trying to save the most money i can, since the 8350 is not cheap at all. But i want a reliable motherboard.

Thank you all in advance.

How about get the FX8320+hyper212 evo, because you need the cooler for fx8350 too, and you do the oc by yourself.
And the best budget 970 chipset MB will be GA-970A-UD3P, next one will be Asus M5A99X EVO R2.0 or M5A99FX PRO R2.0, and Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0, if you want the best Asus Crosshair V Formula-Z.
