I have a budget of $300 and no more. That means if taxes will exceed the budget past $300 I cannot get it. But I need the best AM3+ Motherboard that supports the FX with a good chipset, along with a good or BEST mid tower ATX case you guys can find. Also, list the best FX processor you can find. I know with a bit of research I could do this myself, but this is my first build and I know how friendly this forum is so please help out.
Things I need under or at $300:
*AM3+ Motherboard.
*Best FX processor within range.
*Best Mid/full tower ATX

;)
I'm doing gaming with this build, I have all the other parts I need, just the rest is hard to get.

SR how did I know you would post on this? You're the best dude! How long do you think this will last? I don't get paid until the 18th of November and this is a great deal!

As much as I would like that processor I'll have to stick with the FX 6300 because of the budget I'm on it'd be best if I just got a top notch motherboard to give a better upgrade path. Thanks though.

 


The 8320 would give noticeable performance over the FX-6300 so try and get enough money to go with the 8320. It is definitely worth it.
