Hey guys! I want to upgrade my current peice of crap gigabyte ga-b75m-d3h for a new micro or standard ATX Motherboard.
My current specs are:
PSU: Corsair AX860
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8GB DDRIII 1600MHz
GPU: Gigabye GTX 670 OC windforce x3 2GB
CPU: Intel 3570k
Other future upgrades:
SSD
Fast HDD for storage.
Another Gigabyte GTX 670
I don't do any benchmarking I just play video games, surf the Internet and watch movies. I do overclock my GPU and would like to be able to overclock my CPU but no crazy overclocking.
I'm looking for a MOBO that will allow me to do an SLI configuration with another Gigabyte GTX 670 while still having room for a PCI wireless card. Also I'm a bit into aesthetics so I have a large Coolermaster V6GT fitted on my current MOBO and it fits perfectly so I would like to use the cooler on the new motherboard.
I would love to stick with a Gigabyte model because I've never had any problems with any of their products and have been told by others it's a reliable and good brand, but I'm also open minded into other reliable brands but no cheap brands. I have a budget of no more then 250 dollars. I don't need to spend exactly 250 dollars but I'm prepared to spend that much.
Any help will be appreciated.
Edit: It is my understanding that the difference between a standard ATX Motherboard and a Micro ATX is the standard is a little longer while they remain the same width, is this correct?
