What is the best cheap motherboard for the AMD Piledriver FX-6 Six Core 6300 that I want to use in my gaming pc and is the AMD Piledriver FX-6 Six Core a good choice?

Any feedback is welcome and a decent board at the lowest price would be awesome.

any 970 or 990FX board will be fine, main difference between the 970 and 990FX is number of PCI-E slots

for a decent board at a low price the Biostar TA990FXE performs extremely well, outperforms many asus and gigabyte boards, its not too expensive, stable and it overclocks better than most, it has a 4+2 VRM whereas most other budget 990FX boards have 4+1

What is your budget 100? 150? 50?

no more than 100 would be amazing 

Thanks

thanks looks great. Do you think the processor is any good, I did a bit of research on AMD processors and this one seems the best for value.

Thanks for replying but I will probably go with the Asrock 970 Extreme 3 as its a bit cheaper and from Asrock which imo is a better company. 

Please reply if this board has any upgrades to the Asrock 970 Extreme 3 that I haven't spotted

Thanks for replying

just another quick question, is the AMD Radeon HD 7950 compatible with the Asrock 970 Extreme 3 you recommended me and is it a good graphics card 

Thanks if you reply, I'd love to know what you think.
