Question Good non overclocking Intel 1151 motherboards ?

[Prdp]

Planning to upgrade my PC. I don't overclock my system, so I don't to want to waste money on overclocking features instead I'm looking for features like WiFi, Bluetooth, M2 slots, Usb 3.1 gen 2 ports, etc.. I don't care about RGB lightnings as well.

Unfortunately all these feature are available in Z390 boards only. Is there any non overclocking motherboard with good feature set ?

My budget is 150$.

CPU : i5-9400 CPU
GPU : Nvidia 1050Ti .

PC will be used for casual gaming, Visual Studio, Sql Server, etc..

What CPU do you plan to use? 1151 covers 100/200 series boards (6th and 7th Gen) and 300 series boards (8th and 9th Gen).

Assuming you're looking at 300 series, the B360 AORUS Gaming3 WifiATX is the cheapest board that'll net you USB Type-C.

Thanks mate. You are right, I was looking at 300 series. Between B360 and H370 chipset which one you would choose ?

B360 and H370, you're not going to find much of a difference - and I'd opt for whichever board is cheapest.

Wifi/Bluetooth etc is mostly limited to mITX boards which forgo USB-C (typically), and your options are limited if you want to go mATX or full ATX.

Really, you need to determine which form factor (or features) you want, and it'll likely narrow it down to only a couple of boards to choose from anyway.
