Help which mobo is better for overclocking

[jovany08]

Hi guys I plan on buying a new pc on summer and am looking for a good motherboard for OC. I have a msi gtx 970 and an fx 8350 cpu. If anyone knows of a good mobo under 110 bucks i'll appreciate it. Thanks guys

The Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 is probably your best choice: https://pcpartpicker.com/part/gigabyte-motherboard-ga990fxaud3

If not the Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P is still a fantastic overclocker, having the same power phase design as the 990FX boards.

ASRock 990FX Extreme6 is also very nice motherboard with awesome clock phase for 8350 It's price on pcpartpicker is $103.98

I agree, but it doesn't quite have the build quality of the Gigabyte board. Equally, it doesn't match his colour scheme particularly well, with the blue heatsinks.

Well my moto is Performance > Design. However both motherboards are good and jovany08 won't regret buying either one of them. So between these two motherboards it comes down to personal preference. Take a look on both of them, you can check few youtube reviews on both and pick the one you liked more
