    Amd processor and asus motherboard.
    Hi friends,
    I purchased AMD 7750 Black Edition Processor and ASUS M2N68-AM SE2 motherboard with 2gb 800 MHZ RAM.

    But while surfing internet I shocked that no one is recommending that motherboard for AMD 7750 BE processor. I told to shopkeeper regarding this. He is ready to change the board. But I have to do this within 2 days. So its very urgent.

    I am novice guy in hardware. So I didn't find any problems right now in this processor and motherboard combination.


    Friends can you suggest me is this board only is enough or should I change the board. Please help.

    What is your friend using this PC for internet, school, work or gaming?

    If he is just using this for internet/school/work I would suggest this board: GIGABYTE GA-MA74GM-S2

    For gaming, you really need a separate video card to run any decent games.

    A far a motherboard manufacturers, I would stick with Gigabyte (budget to high end), Biostar (mid to high end), Foxconn (budget to high end), Asus (higher end), and ASRock. ECS and MSI are pretty good to. I've never had issues with any of these manufactures and have used their products a lot. Asus used to be the gold standard, but they are kind of losing their edge.

    Gigabyte is hands down my favorite manufacturer.

    Difficult to do since you didn't state what features you are looking for in a board. I usually use AMD's System Building Documentation and their recommended motherboards list when building AMD based systems preferring hardware that has gone through a somewhat formal testing process. The list is usually short.
