The ASUS M5A97 PLUS is the better board , the LE version is very poor , it has no heatsinks on the VRM.
They are both a poor option for a 125w CPU , if your thinking about FX 8000 series , go with the 95w "E" versions.
I know its not a very popular choice, but im trying to upgrade my cpu for cheap, so i am going with the AMD FX-8350. I just want looking for a low cost MB to fit it.
