Have built two workstations in last few months using Gigabyte GA-880GA-UD3H motherboards. One Rev. 2101, the other Rev. 3001. Both DVD installs of 6.3 w/o a hitch. Using software Raid 10 on both with four sata III drives. Zero issues known.
HTH.

Seems like overnight every motherboard that worked with linux has DROPPED off the face of the earth.
Every motherboard I looked at is using the realtek 8111 chipset and a northbridge that is not supported.
Example: GIGABYTE GA-970A-DS3, does not work with linux I tried disabling the onboard NIC and using a PCI-E intel card I always use and that would not work either. The north or south bridge is messing with the network card. The card asks for a PXE boot but after centos starts it can no longer find kickstart files, network is messed up.
I was using Asus M5A88-M and they are no longer available.
Anyway - anyone have a suggestion for and AMD motherboard that works with linux be great if it has onboard video (gaming is not needed), onboard network, SATA nothing super special just "working".
Thanks,
