AMD 970 chipset, Intel equivalent ?

[Blythe]

Hi i have always been a fan of amd processors but i think it is time to switch to intel, however i dont know a great deal about intel mobo's. Can anyone tell me the intel equivalent of an amd 970 chip set mobo or the closest thing to it.

I am going to buy an Intel i5 3570 or something close to this, and i only run one graphics card.

Thanks in advance

Go for a B75 chipset board for around $75. It comes standard with sata III and usb 3.0 support. I use asus, but gigabyte and asrock also work ok.

I will probably go asus too as i have in the past with amd
