Hello,

I am building my first set-up and I am looking for a motherboard.

Requirements:
- Used for casual gaming (mono GPU, no OCing, etc.)
- 3 fan connectors
- Good quality/price
- B150 chipset
- ATX or m-ATX
- DDR4

I found the ASUS B150M-A which would be perfect for me, BUT it has only 2 fan connectors and my case has 3 fans (I need the 3 fans). So I need a motherboard which can handle at least 3 fans.

I don't want to spend much on the motherboard, the ASUS costs 85€, I understand I will most likely have to spend more, but I would like to stick as close as possible to this budget.

I am considering the Gigabyte GA-B150M-D3H and the Gigabyte GA-B150-HD3P, can you tell me if those two MOBO have at least 3 fan connectors? Is it good for gaming (not hardcore, just casual with mono GPU and no overclocking)?

If you have suggestions regarding MOBO models, I'll gladly hear them!

Cheers! :)

Both Gigabyte have 1 x CPU fan header and 3 x system fan headers. That info is available in the specifications. A motherboard makes very little gaming performance difference; the CPU and mostly the GPU are more important.
