Hey folks,

I'm having a new Intel I7 3770 Laying around, so i have to purchase a new board. Now the thing is, which MOBO would be the best choice considering board health and quality?

http://motherboard.findthebest.com/compa...erformance

The ASRock Fatal1ty P67 Performance

Or the:

ASUS P8H67-M PRO

When looking at the specs the choice made will be pretty quick, considering you have a lot of more options (RAM etc) with the ASRock Fatal1ty. But the thing is, i have heard a lot of bad things about this MOBO with errors and failures.

Which MOBO would be the best choice?

Please don't just throw an answer at me, i'd like an answer of someone with considerable knowledge about this :)

Thanks a lot in advance guys, i really appreciate it :3

The asus p67 board seems to be reasonable. Seeing that you aren't OCing, you can still do sli of cf with the board.
You can add up to 32gb of ram (if you need that much) and the audio is good too,

I'm not posting this based on prices. I can get both boards new for 50 dollars if you want to know. A friend of mine still had these boards in completely new state lying around.

And yes i'm talking about the 3770 not the 3770K so there would be indeed no reason to purchase the Fatal1ty based on overclocking possibility's.

Btw: I do live in The Netherlands so, i of course cannot order from NewEgg.

Oh and i do not care about the inbuild wifi or the size of the MOBO
