What cpu will you use? that MB ( 4+1 power phase) is good for up to fx6 series cpu, if you have the fx8 series, you should get other better motherboard, like GA-970A-UD3P, msi 970 gaming, etc.

Im going with the Fx-6300 but i found something out i need to find the specs for Gigabyte 970 AM3+ SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Motherboard because i dont think it can support my ram. i think it only goes up to DDR3 1333 without OC. can you tell me what Ram this mobo will support?

The fx6300 can support up to 1866mhz ram. http://www.cpu-world.com/CPUs/Bulldozer/AMD-FX-Series%20FX-6300.html
The MB ( either GA-970A-DS3P or 970a-ud3p) can support up to 1866mhz speed w/o ocing if you use the fx6300.

GA-970A-DS3P from the GA site: Support for DDR3 2000(O.C.)/1866/1600/1333/1066 MHz memory modules
* To support a DDR3 1866 MHz (and above) memory, you must install an AM3+ CPU first. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4591#sp

Same as the GA-970a-ud3p. http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=4717#sp
