Which z87 chipset motherboard is good ... ?

Z fighter · Nov 8, 2013

Hello i am little confused about the motherboards cause both the Intel® Desktop Board DZ87KLT-75K
and the Asus Maximus Vi Extreme are supported LGA 1150 processors and i don't know which to choose money is not the issue ...... i just want to play the games by two way SLI so any good idea will be appreciate .....

A lot that has to do with the price is overclocking. Most of the boards will support 2 way SLI. This would probably be a great motherboard for you: http://www.amazon.com/MSI-Motherboard-Motherboards-Z87-G45-GAMING/dp/B00D12OBEU/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1383939298&sr=8-1&keywords=z87+motherboard
One of the other things that has to do with the price is the size of the motherboard, like ATX, eATX, mATX, etc.
You'd want to make sure that your case supports the motherboard size that you get. The one in the link above is a standard ATX size.
If you have a certain color scheme in your case then you can choose a motherboard that has a matching color also.

thnx dear for your reply but actually I am currently using cosmo2 cooler master chase , the main thing that I want is to play the games like crysis 3, and why not in 4k so I want to take every single bit of performance from my board and from SLI some people says that the maximus vi extreme is the overclock devil that is good for me as well......
I did saw the board you mentioned so if you give me more accurate direction to go with asus Maximus vi extreme or with the msi you mention :??:

The MSI board I sent you can do 2 way SLI and can overclock decently. The Maximus VI Extreme is an absolute beast but also quite overkill unless you are an extreme overclocker. Overclocking not only depends on the motherboard but also your cooling and your luck in the silicon lottery. (If you get a chip that can overclock well or not.) This board is probably the best looking I've seen and about $100 cheaper than the Maximus VI Extreme. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132038
It looks really cool with the thermal armor on it and probably overclocks better than the Maximus Hero but the Hero is probably the best bang for your buck.

This is the Hero.

Both of the boards I sent you are the standard ATX size. The Extreme, I believe, is EATX. If you want to do 3-Way SLI or have 2-Way SLI and a RAID card then you'd probably need to buy the Extreme but for 2 Way SLI you'd be fine between the Hero or Formula. A motherboard won't get you any more FPS unless it's bottlenecking your hardware. (In this case none of the motherboards are a bottleneck.)
Hope this helps.
