hi everyone, i only need to know of this mobo will work fine with my pc
Cpu: Fx 8320
Gpu: Gtx 750 Ti ( evga that doesn't need a 6 pin )

Mobo:M5A78L-M LX V2
http://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A78LM_LX_V2/specific...

it says that it support 125W and the FX 8320 is listed in the supported cpu's list
i won't OC at all, i only want it to run and not bottleneck my 8 cores

both the board and the cpu are 125W, will that make a problem?
i read some ppl comments that by buying this board " living on the edge " cuz its barely 125W as the cpu,
the recomnded board i saw was Asus M5A97
the only difference is 140W and 4x ram slots instead of 2 and ofcourse more usb2 and 3 ports. but thats it.
so, can i run this board fine??

No problem at all, go for it!

Don't even worry about this.

You can run that processor on that board just fine, especially if not overclocking.

That mobo will run the CPU and GPU no worries. Maybe one day save up and get a 990fx mobo though. After 780 came 960 then 970 and now 990. Each with improved chipsets.
