My mobo died a couple of weeks ago and I need to purchase a new one. I was looking on Newegg for some ideas.

If you guys could suggest me solid, dependable mobos that would be great!

Some things I'm looking for:
- I am using this PC for gaming/video and image editing
- Must have at least 1 usb 3.0
-1155 socket (intel)
- ssd support
- i7 support (intel)
-UNDER $300

Thanks a lot!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

Hi there take a look at this:

Pretty dependable board I would say. Also did you really mean that you have $300 for a motherboard? That sure is a lot. Anyways the board I posted is perfectly fine, however there are some more expensive ones below.

^Bundled with the Free Ram promotion but quite expensive, bet you wont need it.

^Asus boards are quite reliable

Despite those recommendation I think the Asrock Extreme 4 above will do perfectly fine.
