I have an AsRock 990fx extreme 3 and a fx8350. It is a terrible overclocking board. All things considered its just a bad board all around, fine for budget at stock but there are a lot of odd quirks and problems I have had.

Solid recommends for boards i have put in computers for friends are the:

ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0 AM3+ AMD 990FX http://www.amazon.com/M5A99FX-PRO-R2-0-990FX-Motherboar...

or

GIGABYTE GA-990FXA-UD3 AM3+ AMD 990FX http://www.amazon.com/GIGABYTE-GA-990FXA-UD3-990FX-SATA...

These also are the top recommended boards in the best mb for money article here on toms for this month. I prefer the ASUS but GB is good as well depending on the rest of your set up.

I have an asrock 970 extreme 4 , which seems to be very close to the extreme 3 ,except for some set up options , and I can hit 4.8 GHz with my FX 6300 and a great cooler

The both boards will OC reasonably , but keep in mind it is built to a budget and will run hotter than a board with more power phases and that should add up to a shorter lifespan . But I dont care if it only lasts 6 years instead of 10 . I will be updating in 3 years anyway
