Trying to figure out if this is a good motherboard for the chip http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157582&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-PCPartPicker,%20LLC-_-na-_-na-_-na&cm_sp=&AID=10446076&PID=3938566&SID=

Just got this chip from a dead motherboard and want to use it for something.

Not overclocking or anything.

I liked this one because it was micro

The Asrock has a better chipset, USB 3.0 ports, 2 gpu slots for crossfire, and supports faster memory. If you need that then sure upgrade, but performance wise they will run basically the same and both have the same 4+1 power phase handicap.

A 6+2 power phase would be fine. Especially like I said if it won't be used for heavy gaming. Even the 4+1 would work for basic use but 6+2 is definitely a better choice.
