I'm in the middle between...
1. MSI z87 g45 GAMING ~$155
2. Gigabyte z87x-ud3h ~$159
3. Asus z87-PRO ~$180
4. ASRock Z87 Extreme4/Extreme6 ~$150
Not going to overclock, no SLIs either. Strictly 1080p gaming.
Also, I need a wifi adapter. Do any of them have in-built wifi to save myself some money?
I need to stay as close to $1000 as possible. Which motherboard is the most efficient with my build?
Thank you so much guys. I really appreciate it.
