I need to get a new mother board that doesn't over heat when overclocking and really just a good motherboard all round. I have an FX 6300 so that would be a AM3+ socket on a motherboard.
Any help would be appropriated thank you. (Looking for a board that is £60 at the most).

Thanks for the quick response, just one quick question about both boards why is the Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 worth the extra money like what does it have / what can it do over the Asus M5A97 LE R2.0 ? Thanks

Better heatsinks and lots better power design, as well as extra connectivity. It's really pretty much the minimum for overclocking a CPU like yours. It's a big step up and great for the money.

The LE version isn't really fit for overclocking, but you know, budget.
