The GA-990FXA-UD3 is the one I was looking at.  Glad to hear it...sounds more and more like Gigabyte may be the choice :D

My Gigabyte GA-970A-UD3 with AMD 8 core CPU from Microcenter has served me well for over a year now. Currently smoothly running Debian 7 and previously Ubuntu 12.04.

I'm looking to build a new desktop at home, based on one of the AMD FX 8 core CPUs.  Microcenter has a few motherboards available as a bundle.  It comes down to MSI, ASRock (never heard of that brand), Gigabyte, and Asus.  I've had good luck with Gigabyte and Asus in the past.  Does anyone have any particular preference or opinion on those brands?  It will be for a Linux system running OpenSUSE.  I would expect any modern board to be okay on Linux support, but it has been a while since I have purchased a motherboard and I thought I would solicit some opinions!
