Hi, I'm planning to change my Asrock 990fx extreme3 by a new better one.
I want to OC my vishera FX 8350 to, at least, @4.8 GHZ. I don't know which of the following mobos is the best for OC and gaming with a crossfire configuration.

1. Asus Sabertooth 990FX R2.0==> 145€
2. Asus Crosshair V Formula-Z==> 205€
3. Asrock 990fx Extreme9==> 170€
4. Asrock Fatal1ty 990FX Professional ==> 163€

Please I need consistent responses, is the Extreme Engine Digi+ II, from formula-z, much better than ASUS DIGI+, from sabertooth, to reach that 4.8Ghz?
And what about 12+2 power phases from asrock 990fx extreme9 and fatal1ty?

Well, which one is better considering the money?
Thanks.
 
Get the SABERTOOTH 990FX/GEN3 R2.0

be sure it is BOTH GEN3 and R2.0

it is the only AMD mobo with PCI Express 3.0

FX 8350 can´t support PCI Express 3.0, it's just fake advertising to call attention, and there is not appreciable difference between 3.0 and 2.0, even between 3.0 and 1.0 So, I don´t want to spend around 50 € more in something that is not useful.
 



the PCIe controller is not inside the CPU in AMD. only the memory controller. the PCIe lanes come from the chipset.
