Help choosing AM3+ Motherboard for FX6300

Durgesh Kandipalli · May 20, 2016

Im using FX6300 in MSI970a g43(ya i know stupid board) with graphics card R9-270x with 16Gb Hyperx fury at 2133ghz. While purchasing the board last year ive seen the positive reviews and purchased. Its an ok board. While under heavy load BSODs like crazy. I play like 20hrs straight on holidays. i can play all games on medium to high settings now with 40-50fps.

Now recently i've read about the VRM temp problems in my board and got to know the problem for the BSODs.

Please recommend me a board for overclocking FX6300.
I'm currently looking at MSI 970 gaming motherboard, gigabyte version of 970 gaming and finally gigabyte 990FX gaming motherboard.

Thanks in advance...

Any 990FX board is likely to have much more robust VRMs than a 970 board, however there are some decent 970 boards. Check out the new Asus 970 "Aura" board that was just reviewed here, and also ASRock's 990FX offerings.

990FX is the only real option.

Getting a 990FX board capable of handling a 125W processor will give you some over clocking head room on the mobo.
