Gaming Motherboard Upgrade

docff · Jun 27, 2014

I want to upgrade my CPU to an Intel Core i7-4770k from an Intel Core i7-860.

Since the sockets of those two are different,I have to upgrade my motherboard as well.

Which motherboard from those two companies would you recommend for a high-end gaming system?

Hello... I'm having good performance/quality with Gigabyte Boards.

MSI Z97 Gaming 7 and/ or 9 AC are good choices
Asrock Z97 extreme6
Asus Z97 Maximus boards are preferred alot (maybe the maximus ranger)
Asus Z97-A or Plus are also good
Gigabyte Z97 Gaming 5 and/or 7

alternatively, have a look at this http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/motherboards/2014/05/11/z97-motherboard-group-tests/1

Maximus VII Hero, ASUS Z87-A(not marketed as 'gaming motherboard' but it's great, depending on your needs).
