Which MOBO for AMD 1045T from Microcenter?

post #1 of 5

Thread Starter 
Want discount, USB3.0, possibility to add sound card and/or extra GPU. Using the 1045T

I have no idea what the difference is between 880G, 970, and 990X
These are the 3 I found discounted

ASUS M5A99X EVO Socket AM3+ 990X ATX AMD Motherboard
139 with 20 rebate, as low as 79.99 with rebate
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0366623


Asus M5A88-V EVO Socket AM3+ 880G ATX AMD Motherboard
74.99 without rebate
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0365091

ASRock
970 Extreme3 Socket AM3+ 970 ATX AMD Motherboard
44.99
http://www.microcenter.com/single_product_results.phtml?product_id=0382894


Thoughts? What's major difference between the way cheaper ASRock and the ASUS? Can I just go cheap?

Thanks!
