Solution


The OP didn't say he wanted Crossfire or SLI support. If you want that kind of support you need a Z87 based motherboard.
I believe H87 'supports' crossfire/SLI but at x16 x4. Which isn't really good enough. You want ideally at least x8 x8.
Google it or check other threads on tomshardware, I don't want to clog up this thread.
