I trying to find a motherboard for my build but I'm lost I want to run a AMD Phenom II X4 965 125w processor with 4 ddr3 ram slots. I plan on running a radeon graphics card, dual harddrives, dual burners, and windows 7. I'm not into overclocking so thats not a factor for me. I'm not sure which company is better asus, gigabyte , msi , ect I'm looking for one around 100 dollars.
Gigabyte is far better than those other two brands. Here is a board that fits all your requirements: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128443
I was looking into the asus boards and I found this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131406&Tpk=M4A785TD-M EVO but there are two models the one above and this one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131609&Tpk=M4A785T-M The bottom one says corporate service model what is the difference between the two?
Asus stuff is terrible, most of their products only last a few months before they have to be replaced, over and over again. I'd say something like: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128444
Thanks for the info I decided to go with the asus http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produ...&AID=10446076&PID=4129487&SID=skim4051X642410 but I'm going to go with the gigabyte board you suggested for my next build. Does gigabyte have a mid atx board of that model?
Yes, this one: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128394 but it uses DDR2 memory instead of the DDR3 the Asus uses.
