I'm rebuilding my PC and need a descent mobo. I want USB 3.1, M.2 for 950Pro SSD. I don't really care about overclocking or SLI/Crossfire. I'll be using Skylake i7-6700K CPU, N570GTX and 16GB F4-3200C16D-16GTZ memory. Most important is stability then performance. My budget is $200 or less. I would also like to stick to ATX size. These are the boards I've been looking at:
Asus MAXIMUS VIII HERO ATX LGA1151 Motherboard $219.99
Asus SABERTOOTH Z170 S ATX LGA1151 Motherboard $210.00
Asus Z170-A ATX LGA1151 Motherboard $153.99
Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3P ATX LGA1151 Motherboard $99.99
Gigabyte GA-Z170X-UD5 TH ATX LGA1151 Motherboard $196.99
MSI Z170A GAMING M5 ATX LGA1151 Motherboard $164.38
They all seem like they would work. I have 16GB F4-3200C16D-16GTZ memory already so the mobo needs to be compatible with it.
I just found these compatible boards: Am I risking stability if I don't use one of these boards?
