Hi guys,
I m confused which will be best suited motherboard for athlon 2 X4 630/phenom X2 550(socket AM3 type).

I was planning to take Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-US2h.

Though it supports AM3 recently.
but on gigabyte site it is made specially for AM2+.

Is there best Supported and same priced Motherboard for AM3 above mentioned processor?
Similarly which 2*2GB RAM best supported for this processor.

What's your budget??

The board you mentioned is best at that budget.

it is AM2+/AM3 mobo.

its AM2+ cause its support DDR2 only. AM3 cause it support AM3 poccies. if u want a mobo which support DDR3 only, check for AM3 mobos. however keep in mind AM3 won't support any AM2+ proccy. cause of pin incompatibility.

Go for the - ASUS M4A785TD-V EVO
It's a good mobo for the AMD Athlon II x4 630......

^^ good one
if OP's budget allows
