Best Motherboard For 2 Way SLI?

[Jack Poole]

Hello! I am going to be building a gaming computer that will be using to MSI 970's in SLI, and I was wondering what Motherboard would be a good one for overclocking, SLI and mostly just gaming and some online school stuff(The cheaper the better.....)? I was thinking of the Z97-A because its cheap, but not sure if there is any one better. Thanks!

The z97-A is a good choice so is the Gigabyte GA-Z97X-SLI which is usually a little cheaper.

The Z97 A is the best value on the market right now.

I'm using the Asrock Z97 Extreme4 with two 970s in SLI. Great board for the price $125.98

It won Tom's Hardware Z97 shootout as the value leader for boards from $120-$160
Boards compared were:
ASRock Z97 Extreme4
Asus Z97-A
Gigabyte Z97X Gaming 5
L337 Gaming Z97-Machine
MSI Z97 Gaming 5
