This is a great budget board for a solid budget build. You won't get any OC mileage out of it, but worth a good consideration for the casual user. |

ASUS M5A78L-M LX Micro ATX Socket AM3/AM3+ AMD 760G CHIPSET 1866MHZ DDR3 Radeon HD 3000
Cons:Only 1 spare fan header
Pros:FX-6300 worked out of the box Comment:
I have a few of these for gaming rigs paired with FX-6300. Cheap, they work, they have what I need. Missing a lot of features, but I don't need any of them.Don't notice any gaming issues while using these despite many posts on the internet talking about the FX-6300 being throttled (at stock) on these motherboards. Don't take my word for it, but I am not having any major issues. It's possible you will get slightly better performance on a 970+ chipset board, but it runs great for me. (At stock only, I do not recommend overclocking on this board unless you had some additional cooling for the mosfets) |

Cons:sata2, no usb3, no digital display out
Pros:cheap, low power consumption, supports ecc ram, gblan Comment:
Used for a simple server. Supports ecc memory, and consumes little power. AM3+ so cpu upgrade in the future should be simple. Would be nice if it had usb3 or a digital video output but not a biggie. |

ASUS M5A78L-M LX Micro ATX Socket AM3/AM3+ AMD 760G CHIPSET 1866MHZ DDR3 Radeon HD 3000
Cons:- No complaints at this price point ($55)- Not sure about the upgradability of this board, so I think this board is mostly suited towards those on a strict budget now and later.
Pros:- ASUS quality and reliability- Great basic motherboard for budget AMD PCs- Stylish design? Comment:
As always, a great motherboard from ASUS. Everything runs smoothly on first try.Although not recommended on this motherboard, I was able to overclock my AMD Athlon/Phenom II X4 840 from 3.2Ghz to a stable 3.6Ghz, I probably could've pushed it some more but the board Phase 3+1 Design would be really stressed.. so, just something to think about. |
