Gigabyte GA-Z77MX-D3H VS Gigabyte GA-Z77X-D3H

[Joris]

So the title pretty much says it all which one is better if i'm gonna use the Core i5 3570k and be willing to overclock it + a Sapphire HD7870 Ghz Edition,
What do you think is it worth the extra money ?
i'm not using an SSD btw.

Thank You,

Joris

Neither. Up to you if you want a Micro ATX or standard ATX.

 

[Joris]

can you clarify what that means?

 

[Joris]

never mind i just ''googled'' it, so basically there is no difference exept in number of PCI slots?

Well, the Micro ATX is much smaller in size. Micro meaning small.

Edit: yeah it has a few less slots. Usually comes with the territory of being smaller. But both support SLI / CrossFire.

so basically if i don't need those slot's (which i don't) i can save my money and lose Nothing? if that's true then OK i take the smaller one
