Straignt

Hi I need a new Motherboard for my gaming build its pretty good I have an i5 2500k and am thinking about getting an Evga Gtx 570, Im not very good with motherboards and all I know is (I think) I need a socket 1155. My budget is around the 100euro mark I was thinking about this http://www2.hardwareversand.de/articledetail.jsp?aid=49378&agid=1601

Hi again, I have not heard of the brand ASRock im not sure If I would trust trust them I like the MSI board but it looks cheap, what about this one? http://www2.hardwareversand.de/articledetail.jsp?aid=49378&agid=1601

Asrock are a spinoff from Asus. They started out as a budget brand have moved upwards in the last few years. Their boards are quite good quality at the moment. On the other hand, I've heard a lot more problems with Asus in their recent boards, mostly with their P67 ones though. MSI boards have been very good in both AMD and Intel this generation.

As for that MSI vs Asus

http://www.msi.com/product/mb/Z68A-G43--G3-.html

Noticeable differences are that the Asus has a HDMI port and Optical S/PDIF. On the other hand, the MSI is Gen 3 (i.e., PCI-E 3 slot when you use one of Intel's upcoming CPUs).

You could get the HDMI port if you got the MSI G45. For some reason their full ATX one is dearer than other sites (available from komplett for €117 last time I looked) but their mATX one is €104.

Note that if you're thinking of adding in a second graphics card later on, make sure that you get a second PCI-E slot that offers (at least) x8 bandwidth.
