Hey Guys and Gals,

So I am looking into the X99 Intel Boards and just not sure which direction to go. I am not dead set on any one brand and trying to get the most bang for the buck. I am looking in the 250 to 350 ish range. I have Been thinking the Asrock Fatality Killer but then again the Asus Deluxe as well. But then again I wonder if the MSI would be good as well. Here is what I am going to pair up with said MB. -

Intel 5930k
Evga GTX 980 in 3 way Sli
G.skill 4 series 64 Gb 2400
Rosewill 1600w PSU
Samsung 840 Evo 1 Tb
Enermax Liqtech 240 Cooler
A few extra Hdd's and Keyboard and Mouse
AOC 29" LED

So any thoughts and Idea's would be great. Primary use is Gaming and Video editing.

Well Fatality Killer would be a great choice, Deluxe would be feature ladden but of little use to a mainstream gamer, even if he's enthusiast level. I'd go with Killer, it OCes great, and use the bucks saved on other parts :)

Thats what I am thinking, It would also be my gut reaction to get the Killer. Just want to make sure before I buy the board and Find that it could be lacking.

I was wondering the same thing, a single 980 would be fine for comfortable FPS, 2 way SLI for insane FPS, 3 way will be overkill and not worth it IMO.

In answer to your ? it would be that not only is there the FPS, RTS'es and MMO's. I will also be encoding in 1080p 80 % of the time and the other 20% will be learning to master video's in greater quality. this is the primary function 16 hours a day, the other 4 and maybe more on light work day is for gaming. and if I can I will see is I can do the video while gaming. LOL

As I looked further , I have changed the LED to a AOC 28" 4k display. Thanks for pointing that out. And thanks for your replies. I am putting in my order in a few minutes.
