I am building a computer for Photoshop and some gaming this is my build so far

http://

I have everything but the Power supply,Memory and Motherboard.

I have a Intel I7 4700 no overclocking needed.

I was thinking about buying the Asus Z87 Plus I like that you can control it with smart phones and also stream media

Is their a better motherboard that does this with more features or is this a good board plan on buying tomorrow also what memory is compatible with this board??

I am a newbie first build.

I was advised to buy the ASRock B75 PRO3 ATX LGA1155 Motherboard or ASRock H87 Pro4 ATX LGA1150 Motherboard

Is Asrock better then Asus??? Is Gigabyte better ??? Are anyone faster for Photoshop for photos or rendering HD Video???

Is it worth paying more for the Remote GO! - Wireless Media Streaming and Remote Desktop Made Easy

Thanks for any help!!!!!!

Asrock was originally a subsidiary of Asus that was created to address the "builder" market where Asus' emphasis on the enthusiast made their higher quality products non-competitive. it;s now owned by Pegatron who interestingly enough when ya call Asus TS or get RMA returns abd fill out forms from Asus, you are oft dealing with Pegatron

In my experience, Asus and MSI are a small step above Gigabyte .... I only use Asrock in budget builds below $1200

You arent going to be happy with gaming on a workstation card .... and if ya doing video, ya want an GeForce card w/ CUDA

The only reason to use a Quadro [or Fire pro] video card with Adobe Premiere is if you are using a 10 bit monitor like the HP Dreamcolor or similar or you need SDI output. Otherwise, the Quadro’s are under powered and over priced.

You will get better [video editing] performance for a lot less money with the GeForce cards.

I would not use that PSU

the Seagate 7200.14 is a faster drive better suited for large file transfers

As for the MoBo....it's a fine board.....

Memory Id use
RAM - $140 - (2 x 8GB) Muskin CAS 9 DDR3-1866 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16820226382

And for PSU, the XFX Core Edition

I appreciate the help I am a newbie and this is what I was recommended by someone in the forums.

Here is the link http://

So your saying I have the wrong Hard-drive which I can exchange for the other Seagate.
Your also telling me the 399 dollar video card is the wrong one and to go with GeForce card w/ CUDA.
Also that I have the wrong Power Supply Unit which I have not bought yet.

For the Ram was not sure the 1866 helped since I was not over clocking but if it will work I will get 32gb ram of it!

I really appreciate the help!!!!!
