Hi there,

I just wan't to ask If the Asus M5A88-V EVO motherboard paired with an AMD FX-6300 CPU is a good combination for overclocking and gaming? Is the 880G chipset kinda old for newer games like Crysis 3, upcoming Far Cry 4, BF4 and similar games?

Also, I got an Asus R7 265 2GB GPU.

Thanks In advance!

thats a general assumption you make and isnt correct. all vendors have lower and higher end models. both specific mobos where high end when they firstly appeared. however the gigabyte is based on a newer chipset design and still has the better vrm system!

It's a nice motherboard, plus with the 8+2 power phase design, but isn't the Asus 8+1 power design, plus I've heard that Asus has more quality mosfets? Just curious :)
