## Description

ASRock 970M PRO3 Socket AM3+/ AMD 970/ DDR3/ Quad CrossFireX/ SATA3&USB3.0/ A&GbE/ MicroATX Motherboard

Review: Easy install works well with Linux - Used in my home Linux server. Been a few months still going strong. Worked immediately with no tinkering, easy swap out for the old board. Good way to upgrade an older PC.
Review: Easily the Best Matx board for am3+ - I purchased this board about a month ago to replace an Asus board I was having difficulties with. The Asus board could not supply enough power to the FX-6300 in my system while under load, and still had no headroom whatsoever at the stock speed. It was limited to 95 watts, the base requirement for the 6300, and would crash in any intensive games. Seeing that this board could supply 140 watts, enough for a turbo boost to 4.1-4.3 ghz, I decided to purchase it. For a month, it worked fine. Then, I started experiencing the same problems as with the previous board. In Star Wars Battlefront, the pc would crash after just 5 minutes (turbo boost disabled, cpu at stock speed). Further research indicated that the 4+1 phase power connector used by this board is a poor fit for a performance cpu like the 6300, and very few people have ever had any success with this board and the FX-6300. I am currently in the process of looking for yet another replacement. As far as the board goes in general, it will probably work fine with FX-6300 that is underclocked or just being used for light tasks and games like minecraft or TF2. With that being said, I fail to see why someone would get an FX-6300 for casual tasks, so while this is the best micro-atx board for the am3+ platform, I would not advise getting this unless you have a low-tier FX processor or an older, less demanding cpu with lower power requirements. If you are looking to build a first-time budget gaming rig with the FX-6300, I hate to break it to you, but you're going to have to get a more expensive motherboard, and those boards are all atx, and cost at least 100 US dollars. Otherwise, you'll just end up unnecessarily spending more money replacing it. UPDATE------ I have recently discovered that the aforementioned crashes were in fact due to the graphics card overheating, which was caused by my own poor arrangement of case fans. With that in mind, I once again tried tweaking the cpu settings, and, with this board, I achieved a stable 4.3 ghz clockspeed on my Fx-6300. Temperatures remained perfectly stable (on the stock cooler, I might add), and I found that I could go for several hours of gaming, and I even sucessfully tried a shirt run at 4.5 ghz. After a bit of troubleshooting, I am happy to say that my prevoius issues were resultant of my own error and forgetfulness of simple thermal physics.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ works with ubuntu 24 and 25
*by P***E on July 14, 2025*

Bought to replace an old Asus mobo that failed after many years. Asked Asrock support if the board could be used with linux. They said no, as no drivers were available.. Figured worth a try. to my suprise ubuntu 24.04 and 25 worked very well and are doing great. All the necessary drivers come with the distribution.. good cheap board. recommended .. for both win and ubuntu..
