I'm looking for a good budget motherboard that will support this graphics card:

I've read that it is a dual slot graphics card. Does that mean it needs 2 x PCIe 2.0 x16?
Do I need 3 chassis fans in order to keep such a graphics card cool?

The setup I'm considering has a Core i3-4130 3,4 Ghz cpu.

Can anybody recommend a good motherboard, preferably Asus?

Micro-ATX is ok too.

Thanks!

Hi !

I have a EVGA GTX 770 card on a MSI Z87 -G45 gaming motherboard from MSI. My cpu is 4770k.

You will need a triple fan setup for good cooling. Coz the card heats up quite badly on heavier programs like 3dsmax.

Dual slot means they take space equal to 2 slots.The card physically comes with only one slot edge.

You can look for Asus budget boards like Z87-A for around for $120.
