I recently purchased an r9-290x. I am looking to build a rig around this gpu that lets it reach its full, or atleast pretty good, stock potential. I am not overclocking and I am working on a very tight budget. I am many looking to find the most affordable processor and mobo. This being said:

1. I am looking at the Sabertooth 990FX R2.0 AMD mother board. Could I go cheaper? if so, which MOBO?

2. I am thinking about getting either the fx-6300, fx-8320, or if i have to spend more, the fx-8350. Which is the cheapest I can get away with? are there cheaper?


Thank you!
