Im wanting to get a new mobo, but not really sure what to get.
i really am happy with this Gigabyte mobo i have now would like to stay with Gigabyte if i can
i dont really want to spend more than 100$ on one (would like it to be at most around 75$)
Main things i want from it is
AM3+ socket for FX processors
USB 3.0
PCIe 3.0

Thank you :)

No it's pcie 2.0 but in comparison, there's only 2-3% difference in performance, Irrelevant really unless you are hardcore overclocking, which i suspect not with those components. They are backward compatible
The motherboards for your CPU chipset do not support pcie 3.0 is the issue in this case

Check this thread; http://www.tomshardware.co.uk/answers/id-1852845/pcie-gpu-amd-motherboard.html

Love the PCS+ range by the way, those cards are binned alot!
