I need help in buying a new AM3/AM3+ mobo. My budget and requirements are as follows:
had put up a wtb mobo thread across 4 forums including here since past 3days or so, with hardly any response
So was considering buying a new mobo instead. was thinking of putting the previous download rig setup back in its place & getting a new mobo for Phenom 965(140W) along with my gpu MSI HD7870. so, dont really need onboard graphics.
was thinking of Gigabyte GA-970A-DS3 (rev. 3.0)

Please suggest if any better mobo in my price range or comment on the same. dont prefer any specific brand, as long as its good.
preferably with sata3 & usb3.
