Which MOBO is better?

[eronenris]

I am building my wife a computer for basic gaming (WoW, Diablo 3, etc.). Just wanting to know which of these MOBO's is best. From what I can tell the only difference in the one has solid capacitors. Is that really that big of a deal?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

I would go with the second one,just because of the USB 3.0.Otherwise they are the same.

Both are equal on the tier list on toms hardware. But go for the one with usb 3.0 one. Neither will be good for OCing though.

Hi - You need to take user reviews with a grain of salt, however, and neither of these is stellar, but
at the price understandable. In any event, the one with the better caps is 10% higher with users
giving 4 or 5 stars (60% vs 50%), and more importantly has 24% unacceptable to 33% unacceptable
(less than 3 stars) so that's the one to go with.

The 760GMA has USB 3.0 ports while the 760GM doesn't. The 760GMA also has sata 6. For the price I would definitely go with the 760GMA.

The 760GMA also can support more CPU's 😀

I say go with the GMA. It's the clear winner
