    AMD Motherboards

     
    I'm stuck between these 3 motherboards. Which one should I choose? I'm planning on buying a 1090T and a 5870 to combine them with one of these motherboards for a gaming rig (I know some people will tell me that I should buy a cheaper CPU like a 955 or 965 because they're better but this is just my preference). Which one of these 3 motherboards would be a better choice? Also I'm not going to do any overclocking right now, but I might in the future and I will only be choosing from these 3 890FX motherboards. I don't plan on spending any much more money on a motherboard. Thanks in advance.

    These are the 3 motherboards:

    ASUS M4A89TD PRO

    GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD5

    ASUS M4A89TD PRO/USB3

    May as well get the Asus with USB3
    The Gygabyte is a good board but has a little less overclocking headroom...

    I personally WOULD get the Gigabyte if it were me, but if your asking which is technically the best board with future overclocking in mind, the Asus has the edge albeit small

    Is there a difference between the 2 Asus mobos besides the USB 3.0 feature?
