I need help picking a motherboard. The motherboard needs to be AM3+ (95w) CPU compatible.
I have a 64GB SSD that I use mainly for OS boot and one or two small programs, and I'm not sure if SATA 3Gb/s or 6Gb/s makes a difference on the speeds (if someone could help me understand that a little better, that would be appreciated).
I'm looking at around $60-70 max for the mobo.

So far I'm looking at the MSI 970A-G46 which I originally didn't think was compatible with the FX-6300, but further inspection on the MSI website shows that it is compatible. It has 4 dim slots, UEFI bios, 6Gb/s sata, and USB 3.0

I think I answered this one myself! :D
