guys,
been plannin to buy my sandy bridge pc this weekend
so finalised on the following
i5 2500k
Sapphire/msi cyclone oc hd6850
baracuda seagate 500gb
fsp saga 550w smps
jst needed ur guys help on choosing a perfct motherboard for me..(asus , gigabyte, or asrock) with usb3.0
i put all of my budget on my i5 and 6850
the max i can use is 150$
i dont intend to crossfire
nd i dont plan to do hardcore overclocking

just need to finish my setup thats al

if ther aint no good Atx boards, i dont mind using a mAtx board, which has usb3.0 and can fit 6850 in my NZXT guardian case......

thanks a lot in advance
awaiting ur reply
