hey,

i'm currently working on my first mobo and i'm going to go with asrock motherboards since they allow ddr4 overclocking (i know about the compatible ddr4 that's necessary, no prob)

i was wondering if i should go for the cheapest option h110 motherboard http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H110M-HDV/ or a more decent gaming version http://www.asrock.com/mb/Intel/H110M%20Combo-G/ ? (the price difference is 68 vs 82 euros)

i'm not going to overclock my cpu, i'm also not considering crossfire so these hold no value for me. (same goes for sata express and such) so i don't see any advangtage going to b150 or z170 chipsets.

which of these would be the best choice? or would i still be better off with another brand?

thanks for all your input!
 
Solution
Go for the HDV, only benefit of combo-g is that it has 2xDDR4 dims and 2xDDR3 dims, which is totally useless since you are going DDR4. But I assume you already know that you cant get more than 2x16GB DDR4, which should be more than enough.
