Good mATX motherboard for FX-8320

kgrevemberg · Dec 1, 2014

Hey guys, just curious if anyone knows of a good mATX motherboard that will work out of the box with the 8320 and wont require any bios flash or anything.

Thanks

There are no new M-ATX motherboards for the 970/990FX platform right now. Only the old 760G chipset ones, which I would avoid using with the FX-8320. Those motherboards are not ideal for the power delivery the 8320 requires.

If you still would go for the M-ATX route, I'd suggest the GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3 (would still require update).
You should go full ATX if you want a good motherboard for that CPU.

The micro ATX boards aren't sufficient for the FX8320 due to a poor power and thermal design.

AM3+ Micro ATX is a dead end.

ok so scratch the matx. I had already kinda decided on a full ATX but just curious if i could chave off a few dollars with matx.

Is this a good one to buy? Seems up to date and hass everything I'd need.

Yes it's a very good board.

It's a good motherboard and supports the 8320. Will work much better than the mATX ones.
