Hi,

I don't know what your cpu is but the G1.Sniper M5 is superior to the GA-B85M-D3H .

The big difference is the chipset:

G1.Sniper M5 I ntel® Z87 Chipset => faster speed, let you overclock, better quality, gamer mobo
GA-B85M-D3H . Intel® B85 Chipset ==> older chipset, can't overclock.

So I would keep the new one and sell the other.

If you plan to have the k version cpu or you alreagy had that, then keep the sniper M5 and sell the b85, otherwise keep the b85 and sell the sniper M5.
