I'm making this computer:
http://pcpartpicker.com/user/Triqkster/saved/pJZ2FT

Although, I bought a Cooler Master K350 mid-tower case instead and I bought Crucial Ballistix sport xt 8GB RAM instead.

I have all the parts ordered and most of them are here, although the mobo is now out of stock and since my dad is buying me it for Christmas he wants to cancel the purchase and buy a different one. will this one fit?
http://www.amazon.co.uk/ASRock-FM2A75-PRO4-Motherboard-...

or this one:
http://www.amazon.co.uk/AsRock-FM2A75-Pro4-M-Motherboar...

If not could someone suggest a different one that will work with all parts and will cost £60 or less that I can buy in the UK? Thanks again

Thanks for the fast response! I'm tied between these two:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/ASRock-FM2A75-PRO4-Motherboard-Express/dp/B00G7RPHGW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1418727965&sr=8-1&keywords=ASRock+FM2A75+Pro4

and

http://www.amazon.co.uk/F2A85-V-PRO-Motherboard-Intelligent-Processors/dp/B009HOPACS/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1418728003&sr=8-1&keywords=Asus+F2A85-V

Can you help me decide? Also are you sure they will both work with the graphics card? I noticed the ASUS has PCIe 2.0 whereas the ASRock has PCIe 3.0 so I'm kind of leaning towards the ASRock.

Both are good. Hard to select..

I will buy the ASRock. The asus board has an FM2 socket and ASrock has a FM2+ socket. An FM2 CPU will work in an FM2+ board, but not the other way round. So if you upgrade your processor in the future, it wont be a problem.
