Solution O O Outlander_04 Feb 11, 2014 PCPartPicker part list / Price breakdown by merchant / Benchmarks Motherboard: Asus M5A99FX PRO R2.0 ATX AM3+ Motherboard ($119.99 @ Newegg) Total: $119.99 (Prices include shipping, taxes, and discounts when available.) (Generated by PCPartPicker 2014-02-11 16:31 EST-0500) That is an excellent mb , but no real advantage over the M5A97 R2.0 since the main difference is dual graphics card support the OP doesnt want

With the ASUS I mentioned you should get 4.7+ GHz depending Upvote 0 Downvote
