I've recently decided to build a gaming PC with the budget of $600. Although I have picked all my parts (including the motherboard), I try to check the web every day to make sure I've made the right decision. This is specifically hard when I look through motherboards since I don't know much about what's good and what's bad.

I've chosen this processor (which proves to be the best option for me): http://www.amazon.com/AMD-FD6300WMHKBOX-FX-6300-6-Core-Processor/dp/B009O7YORK/ref=sr_1_1?s=pc&ie=UTF8&qid=1434079595&sr=1-1&keywords=cpu&refinements=p_36%3A1253505011

These are the three motherboards I've been considering. Can you tell me the pros and cons, and or recommendations for other compatible motherboards? Please don't recommend anything over $100!

ASUS M5A97: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B008V9959O/ref=psdc_1048424_t3_B00F5R9O46

Thanks in advance for your help!
