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!
