Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H is a great choice. It has 2 PCI Slots and 1 PCIe x16 Slot. The Form Factor is Micro-ATX and has USB 3.0 support.

Here a list of motherboards that fit your wishes. Can you still buy them? I'm not sure. Perhaps used.

Don't think that mobo supports SLI.

i want usb 3.0 and SLI support in microATX form factor..
Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H supports SLI and usb 3.0?? huh???

PCHelper · Oct 20, 2015

I completely overlooked the SLI part. No, the Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H does not support SLI but it supports Crossfire.

The following support SLI :

The Asrock Z77 Extreme4 does support SLI but it has ATX Form Factor.

Intel DZ77BH-55K also supports SLI.

Some other's that support SLI are :

Intel BLKDZ77GA70K

Intel BOXDZ77RE-75K

Here's a few to look at. All red & black because I like red & black. All micro-ATX and all support SLI / Crossfire

MSI Z97M Gaming

Gigabyte GA-Z97MX-Gaming 5

Asus Maximus VII Gene

PCHelper :

PCHelper · Oct 20, 2015

Go for the ASUS P8P67-M. It is a great Mobo and has both SLI+CF support and USB 3.0 support.

Y0GI · Oct 20, 2015

kashyapjatin :

HERE (LINK) is a list of Z97 MATX mobos that support SLI. Not sure how good the list is, I just found it through Google.

The Asus mobo that you asked about is not on the list. IDK why.

Y0GI :

But, MR YOGI. they all are 1150 and 2011 sockets and i have 3rd generation of intel 3340 CORE i5 and it wants 1155 sockets//

Y0GI · Oct 20, 2015

kashyapjatin :

No it is not. You need AT LEAST 600W (LINK) and I would prolly get 650W. just to be sure. Pick one from Tier one or Tier 2 of the THG PSU TIER LIST (LINK)

okk then gpu wants more power..okk i i want the 650watt//
and what is tier 1 or tier 2? i don't know about this///

Y0GI · Oct 20, 2015

I think that there are only 2 mobos on that list because I selected PCI-e 3.0. Did you want 3.0 or 2.0?

Yogi

kashyapjatin · Oct 20, 2015

Y0GI :

3.0 pci becoz GTX 950 it is latest so i think the BUS support is 3.0

The "TIERS" are listed in the above article, "THG PSU TIER LIST". THG rated each PSU according to the output, quality of design, components, etc. Tier 1 &2 are the better ones.

Y0GI · Oct 20, 2015

kashyapjatin :

OK. The Asus P8P67-M is only PCI-e 2.0. SPECS (LINK)
