What is the difference in the Asus m5a97 variants??

smartysidster · Jul 4, 2014

Ok!..I wanna know what all varaints of the M5A97 are available.According to me they are :

1. M5A97
2. M5A97 R2.0
3. M5A97 LE R2.0
4. M5A97 Evo R2.0 and PRO

Now amongst all these..all of em support the FX-8350. The LE doesnt have a heatsink, and I guess I am planning for either the M5A97 or the M5A97 R2.0.

Now my question is..what is the difference between these two?. Majorly on the topic of ONBOARD graphics..which one of them have it? And what are the other differences?

The EVO/PRO has 6+2 power phases. The rest only have 4+2

The LE doesn't have a heatsinked VRM, the others do. So you can't overclock your cpu with it without custom cooling.

None of them support cpu with integrated gpu

Exactly what i wanted to know. Thanx.

Pc-Specs.com clearly says the M5A97 supports onboard graphics...but whatever!

And hey!.. Can you suggest me any motherboard which has an integrated gpu and supports the FX-8350 and also comes for around 185$

And how about Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3? Does it have integrated graphics?

FX cpu don't have integrated graphics so the motherboards don't support it.
