Planning to put in i5-4670k,

4gb x 2 GSkillsripjawsx 1600

R9 270X

Is this motherboard good? Cause I keep hearing tons of issues with it like BSODS when using all 4 slots and something about the GPU slots one being x16 and one being x4 (i dont know the difference.)

Hi there,
Yes the Z87-DH3P is a good board, there is also these boards in your price range:
MSI Z87 GD65
ASUS Z87 PRO

And the PCI-E slots, one runs at X16 which gives the graphics card full bandwidth and doesn't share it with any other slots, where as the X4 slot shares bandwidth with all the X1 slots (Smaller ones)
For e.g its like one car having a motorway to itself (X16) and then the other one sharing it with other cars (the X4 slot)
Hope this helps!
