hello every one, my friend want to build a new gaming computer and since I gave him my intel pentium g3258 and so he want to know what are some recommendation on the motherboard. I told him to get the GIGABYTE GA-H81M-DS2V LGA 1150 but he don't want to get that. However, he told me that there is a Gigabyte B85M which is better, and there is a MSI z97 motherboard. So please help me + my friend to decide what motherboard is a best a this cpu. He is going to use this computer for gaming therefore I think he will overclock it. Thank you very much!

What is your budget? Go Z97 if you want to overclock, here is a decent cheap one below.

Yeah I would go for the one I linked then, its a good board for the price and should do pretty well overcloking the G3258.
