Hi there,

Just looking to put together a pc build that will be used mainly for work and multimedia stuff, but maybe some light gaming. Just wanted some opinions on which motherboard to go with out of the three below (also open to recommendations, however!). I'm looking to spend up to £100 on the mobo.

The three I've picked out are:

MSI 990FXA-GD65 AM3+ ATX Motherboard (scan.co.uk link

Gigabyte 970A-UD3P ATX Motherboard (scan.co.uk link)

Asus M5A97 R2.0 ATX Socket AM3+ Motherboard (scan.co.uk link)

Thanks!

Thanks for your input! I hadn't bought everything else, but have now reconsidered and am going to go with the i3 6100 instead and make an Intel build.
