My MSI 990FXA's CPU socket broke. I am on the market for a replacement while it is being RMA'd. I will list my parts and uses, and would appreciate if you could point me in the right direction even if it isn't one of the two I listed below.
FX8350: passes very long Prime95 tests at 211MHz x 21 (4431 MHz) and 211 x 21.5 (4536.5 MHz). I want the new board to hit these numbers at a minimum.
Water cooled.
2 x 8GB Corsair Vengeance LP DDR3 @ 1,833
EVGA 1070 SC
EVGA 600W power supply
USB 3.1 is nice but not a requirement.
I'm used to running Witcher 3 on ultra settings at 140+fps.
Here are the two 970 chipsets I had in mind as a temporary and backup board:
ASRock 970A-G/3.1 $78.99
ASUS 970 Pro Gaming/Aura $103.60
Thanks in advance. I would like to order it tonight so your quick responses would be appreciated very much.
