Motherboard for Fx8350

rfilipe1 · Sep 6, 2017

I need some advice;

I need a new motherboard for my FX8350, my options are:
Asus M5A97 R2.0
Asus M5A97 Plus
Asus M5A97 LE R2.0

Is any of those good enough?

Thanks.

All terrible choices for a 125w cpu. Really need to go higher end.

I just need her for 1 year, after that I'm changing the processor. Does any of those take the fx8350 for 1 year or so without overclock?

They all support it but under prolonged high usage (like gaming) are very prone to the motherboards VRM's overheating and throttling the cpu.

Ok, and from those 3 choices, wish one is the better choice?

Which one has the sockets/features you want? They will all run that cpu the same.

I just want the one that handles the temperatures the best, the rest doesn't matter

Of those boards, I'd say the Asus M5A97 R2.0 is best because it is the only one with a heatsink on the vrm's.

Then get the cheapest, they use the same VRM design.

8350 isn't the best choice for a pc due to its terrible Instructions Per Clock (IPC) and due to its old age you should really look into ryzen instead

I don't think this will be a necro post just yet, so what about a Gigabyte 970A-UD3P? Is it any better?
