I have the same motherboard that you do. Here's what you need:
1. Install package firmware-linux-nonfree. You will need that to get the
X driver to work properly. Otherwise, you are stuck with the VESA driver.
This is in the non-free repository, obviously.
2. Create a file in /etc/modprobe.d called local.conf. In it, put the
following statement:
options snd_hda_intel model=auto
You need this to get the alsa drivers to work with the on-board sound chip.
3. This motherboard uses non-ECC memory; so I strongly recommend that you
use a good memory testing program, such as memtest86+, to make sure that
all your memory is good.
4. I also recommend that you install package amd64-microcode. This will
upgrade your CPU to the latest available microcode during each boot.
Do this and you should be in good shape.
