I just picked up a bargain and got a new AMD FX-4170 for £85. And I was wondering if there are any particular favourite socket A3+ motherboards out there? I'm building my rig on the budget end of the spectrum. It's mainly for day-to-day office work with a sprinkling of Shogun 2/Civ 5/Battlefield 3.
I'm hoping to get a Sata 3 SSD and a Radeon HD 7770 when the price falls a bit further. My hope is to get a second 7770 in 12 months time, and potentially replace the CPU with another AMD 24 months down the line.
My ideal budget for a motherboard is around £90. I can however stretch up to £110.
I'm also a patient bargain hunter who can wait for a bashed box to come along.
Any thoughts?
