Cheap Mobo for 8 core AMD server?

[lsv]

Hey all,

Looking for a cheap motherboard to shove an FX 8120 into for a cheap Plex/FTP/AD/encoding box.

Unsure as to what my options are, I won't be Ocing but I would like it to be as reliable as possible.

What is your price range ? 100 to 250 dollars ?

You want a micro board or regular sized. ?

How much RAM do you intend to use ?

My bad, I guess I don't really have a budget. Though the current box is a BE-2350 and cheap AM2 mobo and needs an upgrade badly.

Micro/regular doesn't matter, at least 4 dimms for a max of at least 32gb.

You want a 9x0 board IMO.

The 970 is the cheaper chipset vs the 990's.

Here is a 970 for $60 AR

As long as you get a 970, 990x, or 990fx based board you should be fine.

I would make sure if they are shipping with the newest bios, since I believe you need a bios update to be able to use a vishera chip
