What motherboard works well with a AMD FX-8310 Vishera 8-Core 3.4GHz Socket AM3+ Desktop Processor.

TimRayder · Apr 26, 2015

My previous motherboard died so I'm looking for a newer more compatible board, that will work with my Amd FX-8310 processor.

I've had problems with asrock in the past, so I wont be buying that brand.

Other specs:
HIS 6790 1gb GPU

2 4gb Corsair Vengeance 1866mhz memory.

780w OCZ psu.

Thanks in advance.

Do you plan to overclock? What is your budget?

Darkbreeze :

I can pay up to $120

I don't Think I'll need to overclock the cpu, since it's already pretty powerful.

Then this would be a really good choice from the 990fx chipset family which is a bit newer and has a few features not found on the 990 or 970 chipsets:

Or this motherboard from the 970 Chipset boards:

TimRayder :

I would suggest this board which has the best price to performance ratio. This will perform like champ with no compromise on durability. Has been the favorite for many, with more than 1500 user reviews / votes on Newegg.

EDIT: Sorry, I missed the "I don't think" part, thanks to darkbreeze for pointing out. The board is good mate, give it a thought.

Cheers!

Are you guys just not paying attention or what? The OP clearly said he's not overclocking. In fact it's in your quoted reply.

This would be a really good choice as well. It's one of only two boards I know of in the 970 family that supports SLI and more importantly, has support for the new USB 3.1 standard.
