There are three mobos I am looking at they are in my price range and i can only afford one of these three. ASRock Fatal1ty 970 Performance AMD 970 ATX is there first one. ASUS M5A97 LE R2.0 AMD 970 ATX is the sencond one and GIGABYTE 970A-DS3P AMD 970 ATX is the last one. Which one of these is the best one? Please do not suggest other boards.

Get the ASROCK Fatal1ty 970 Performance, as it has:

- ASRock DuraCap, Digi Power, 8 + 2 Power Phase Design
- Better power phase design gives you massive overclocking headroom of FX 8320.
- Plus a thermal design power of 220W. [This can handle monster processors like FX 9590 & 9370. So it will handle the your 125W FX 8320 with ease.]

I would get the Asus, as I like their build quality and their aftersales service. For any mobo purchases though, you should still check before purchasing as warranty may differ from regions, best is to ask a friend of yours in the same region. Gigabyte boards are also reliable though, never have any friends who complaint about theirs.
