I would highly recommend the ASUS sabertooth 990fx board


There aren't any features on the Sabertooth he won't get on any other 990FX board unless he is water cooling and doing extreme overclocking maybe. It would literally be a waste of money as any 990FX board is going to allow him to do any overclocking he can on air cooling. I have had the Sabertooth and the one I listed in the build. No difference in the two in that regard.

Actually, for the price of the Sabertooth, the ASRock Extreme 9 is the better board for overclocking because it has 12 + 2 power phase design.

To me it is a must to overclock these chips especially when render times are important. It's almost silly not to, as there is a lot of free performance to be had. That's why I recommended that board. I haven't heard anything negative about the asrock, but the power phases of the sabertooth are plenty sufficient. The only board I think would be wasting money is the Crosshair.
