So now that I have everything (well mostly everything) finalized now I am down to my last thing that makes me go hmmm
So I have done all of my research on the different types of boards and the Z68 seems to be along my lines
So that leaves me with a few choices and I was hoping that you guys would weigh in:
These are in no particular order of preference
ASRock Z68 Extreme3 Gen3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157271
ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131790
ASRock Z68 EXTREME4 GEN3 LGA 1155 Intel Z68 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157264
All of them seem to have a few minor hiccups here and there (all averaging 4 stars on the sites)
Ultimately I want something that will be forward compatible (ivy bridge which I am pretty sure all 3 of these are), I don't really care about bluetooth, but I do have an interest in OC the GPU and CPU but I know that I def don't want a P67 board because those reviews are like the train jumped the tracks and tore up 4 towns along the way of doing it. While there do seem to be some issues with these boards as well they seem to be a lot less (although that could also be a lack of reviews at least on the new egg site)
So what do you think?
Oh rest of my specs/build are/in as follows:
2500k
8gb ddr3 1600
120GB SSD
No Mechanical HDD (Will be adding one once the prices come back down to normalcy)
560ti 448 evga classified
corsair hx750 PSU
