Hi,

I live in New Delhi....

I am going to buy a AMD Phenom II X4 965BE..

Please suggest a good motherboard. USB3 is what I look for and Bulldozer Compatible... Budget Rs6500

I have shortlisted this
1.MSI 970A-G45.

Any better motherboard can u guys suggest?

Everything thing will be accepted!

Thanx in advance..
