I have an Asrock 990fx Fatility right now, but I wouldn't recommend it, if you plan on overclocking. lol I can only get my fx8350 cpu from 4.0ghz to 4.8ghz all 8 cores stable. ONLY! The problem is the AM3+ safe socket temp is 70 degrees and when I stress test an OC with Prime 95 socket temp climbs to 65, but it never has anything that stresses it that much outside of synthetic benchmarks and stress tests. It's the Mobo's build quality that is the limiting factor. AMD is coming out with AM4 sockets motherboards late this year I believe. First they are realeasing Bristol Ridge 28 nanometer apu chips for socket AM4, with the flagship A12-9800 at the top. I think in the first or second half of 2017 they will release the 14nm Zen core Apu and Zen CPU chips. I'd overclock that fx6300 to really get the most out of AM3+, even if it is only like 4.5ghz, you'd be doing good.</p></blockquote><p></p>
