Gigabyte GA-78LMT-USB3 Micro ATX AM3+ Motherboard-£35

Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 Socket AM3+ 8 Channel HD Audio mATX Motherboard-£47

Everyone uses the 2nd one but i dont know why extra £12 for nothing?

Asus board all the way, It is more overclockable and Asus have a reputation for building very high quality products. If you are on a strict budget then go gigabyte but asus if you have the spare pounds.

All your gonna get is Asus is better Probably, But the Gigabyte is still good.

I have had good experiences with both of them, Gigabyte and ASUS, I am running a Gigabyte Z77X-UD5H in my build right now and its been great. Both boards are VERY similar in their features and their reviews, I can't not recommend saving the money and getting the Gigabyte. But if this is for a FX-8350 I personally would spend more money and go for a 990FX chipset, but that's me.
