Im looking for a good motherboard (under $200) for these specs:
CPU: Intel Core i5 4570 3.2Ghz LGA 1150
GPU: EVGA GTX 760 Superclocked 2GB with ACX Cooler
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB (2x4) 1600Mhz
Case:NZXT Phantom 410 Mid Tower

At the moment im looking at these two mboards:
- ASRock Extreme 4 Z87 LGA 1150
- Gigabyte GA-H87-D3H LGA 1150
 
Solution


Have you bought your CPU already?
 


I'll see if I can get these coz they're pretty expensive here in Australia - Asus Maximus VI Hero is $305,
I could probably MSI mobo though coz its $250

Thanks for the reply BTW 😀
 


This seems like a good choice, I'll be able to afford this, thanks for the reply :)
 


I just used a compatibility checker and it says the motherboard wont work with the Graphics Card... :/
 


Well, that's BS, of course it will work. Where did you see that?
 


gooeypc.com - its the compatibility checker ive been using to choose the parts for my pc

Heres the log -
info> Attempting to connect P_VideoCard
error> P_Motherboard does not support Video Card PCIEx16 3.0
connected> Expansion Slot connected to Expansion Slot
info> P_VideoCard FAILED TO CONNECT!
TOS> 0.0064641 seconds
 


Try with the Z87-Pro and then tell me something please.
 


Yeah, that one works! should i go with that than?
 


No, that one is much more expensive and only recomended if you have on overclockable CPU.
Try the Z87-C please
 


That motherboard isnt on their database 🙁
 


Z87-K?
 



Yeah, that one is and it works with the GPU! So should I use this one? 😀
I can't find it in any of the places im buying my parts from though :/
 


Then the H87-Pro will work no problem, I don't know why does the site say that it doesn't... But if you still have your doubts, post another thread to see what other people have to say. But it will work, I'm 100% sure

Ok, thanks for the help! :)
I also used another part picker and it says they work so it was just the one website!
