Hi all,

I'm building a budget PC for 600EUR. I'm looking for a motherboard that will run most graphics cards and that is compatible with the AMD FX 8350. I've been looking at the Asus M5A97 EVO R2.0 AM3+ AMD 970 + SB950 DDR3 ATX board. My budget on the motherboard is under 80EUR. What do you guys think?

When looking for motherboards that are to be used in conjunction with the FX-8350, it is recommended that you purchase one with the 990FX chipset. The M5A99FX Pro Rev 2.0 is a good and stable AM3+ board.

But the M5A97 is a fine board as well, but are you going to be doing any overclocking? I can't really recommend it for that purpose and the 8350 is a great overclocker so you'd be missing out.
