I have chance to get MSI Z87-G41 PC Mate or some h81m chipset micro atx mobo"s .
my setup will be
intel i5 4440 3.1ghz
msi gtx 750 ti 2gb gaming ed.

If i get with h81m chipset micro atx mobo, then i can get better video card, like gtx 660 non ti.
will be h81m chipset better choice? and what psu (in watts) would need for gtx 660 non ti ,with
intel i5 4440?
 
Z87 lets you officially overclock a K CPU. If it's a non K CPU then any chipset is fine. The Z87 also lets you run multiple GPUs in either SLI or CFX. H81 does not, but if it does have 2 PCIe x16, then that means you can run multiple GPUs in a mutiple monitor setup not in SLI or CFX.
I would go with a H81 and a better video card like a R9-270 or 270x
 
I have now decided
Intel i5 4440 3.1ghz
gtx 660
asrock h81M-VG4 or ASROCK H81M-DGS
psu - Fortron FSP RAIDER 750 ATX2.31 88+ 750W
Crucial Ballistix 4GB DDR3 x2
 


will Fortron FSP ATX 2.3 88+ 600W OEM FSP600-50ARN or XILENCE REDWING SERIES 600 R3 ATX2.3 80+ 600W SPS-XP600 work?
