Okay, so I have been doing a lot of research on building my first gaming computer (I was completely new to this 2 weeks ago). Anyways I am pretty set on using the AMD FX-8320 for my CPU. However, I'm having some problems now on which motherboard to use. I have it down between:
1.) ASUS M5A97 r2.0
2.) Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3
From what I've read, both are very reliable boards. I'm just not sure if I should go with the Gigabyte, or save money with ASUS (maybe spend on a better graphics card).
Notes:
I will probably OC my CPU to ~4-4.2 Ghz.
Buying a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO
I'm open to other mobo suggestions
Thanks!
