Need help finding/picking 1155 mobo

[kaykav]

Good morning
I'm looking for a mobo having intel integrated graphics,with the option to upgrade to a video card. I'm looking at intel i3 cpu
(1155 socket) and P67 chipset. Also the H55 chipset (I think 1156 socket). I read that the 1155 socket is better in some way. Any help to hash it all out.
Thank you

If you are looking for a second generation i3 (which has onboard graphics) you are going to need socket 1155.

Go with the P67 chipset, you won't have any problems there

Ok Thank you for that. I'll research further....

Its my believe the P67 does not have integrated graphics, you need H67 or Z68, these are the only currrent options. I would go with the Z68 in your case, as it can add upt to 2 videocards. I have a H67 in my build as I have no plans of getting a discrete GPU, its not a gaming PC tough.

Your right, P67 does not have on-board graphics. I had a change of mind. I will go with P67 chipset and add a video card (Sapphire 5670). Less work for i3cpu. For $60 more it's a wiser choice. Thank you all..

P67 doesnt do integrated graphics, only z68, h67
