Just have not been keeoing track on this side of things last few months as I toil away with my 3570 OC ing etc.
Now that I am a new GPU away from completion on this setup. I will turn my attention to my next AMD build and I think some Vishera action would be mighty fun. Im open to chips from both sides of the fence. Oddly most of my builds over time have been all AMD both CPU and GPU so my current build is outta character so to speak.
Anyway I am looking at the 8 core chips, does not matter 8320 or 8350 heck even the 6 core seems like a great buy at 139 bucks at New Egg.
So my question is and sorry for babbling what's the hot mobo in the community here for Vishera ? as most have seen im sure the Ivy bridge seems to have developed a big following behind the ASrock Z77 Extreme 4 over on the Intel side. Is there a similar board(s) the community for AMD has lined up behind ?
Just trying to save some leg work and gather opinions, would like to stay under 200, feature wise just need a good over clocker, good layout and support for either SLI or X-fire if I can only have 1 of those I would say X-fire as I will most likely stick with AMD GPU's for this build, may even x-fire some 7850 or 7870 cards for fun as I have always gone with 1 card setups. Other than that I do not need alot of goodies on the board. I do like a new and fresh Bios as opposed to the old drab ones where the mouse is usable etc etc. LOL
I prefer in no real order ASrock, Gigabyte, Asus, but I am willing to give any board maker a shot if it's a quality product
Sorry as I know there are many "what motherboard" threads but I don't like to jump in other folks threads with my questions so ty for understanding
