Im new to this site Hi all. :)
i have just brought the Asrock 970 Extrmeme3 R2.0
What are peoples thoughts? CPU is AMD FX 8320 8 core
 
Cheap ATX motherboard. Not very good reviews for the most part on Newegg. Really want to stay with either Gigabyte or Asus.
 
My friend has that same board. Works fine but I wouldn't push too much of an overclock on an 8320. My board is similar and with my 8320 I couldn't overclock much higher than about 4.2GHz without the stability just disappearing.

Bit late to ask us what we think of that board now that you've bought it...

But I would have bought the Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3P or the GA-990FXA-UD3 instead. Both of which are cheap and good boards.
 
I always recommend the Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 when suggesting AM3+ boards to people. 990FX chipset and good value from a good manufacturer.

There are probably higher-end boards but the UD3 is a good one.
