ASUS MSI, GIGABYTE or ASROCK

Sumair Shariff · Mar 28, 2016

So guys I'm upgrading my PC and i have a confusion as to which motherboard should I choose

PC part list
Core i5 6500
Motherboard ???
EVGA 500watt
Crucial 8GB DDR4 RAM
I already have a R7 260X 2GB OC EDITION (will upgrade next year)

Also I'm looking for a micro-atx board else I'll have to buy a new case. I'm on a budget right now.... Any mobo under INR 10000 OR $120-130 will do because I'm not going to OC.(locked processor)

Sumair Shariff :

I would highly recommend the Asrock H170M Pro4

Sumair Shariff · Mar 28, 2016

Didn't find it anywhere here.... I think it's not available in Bangalore India

KKAW · Mar 28, 2016

Sumair Shariff :

What are your options?

Sumair Shariff · Mar 29, 2016

GA B150 M D3H / GA H170M D3H
MSI B150M PRO VDH
Asus B150M Plus D3 / H170 M PLUS
MSI B150M MORTAR
MSI B150M BAZOOKA
Asus B150M-A D3

Else if I somehow manage to buy a new ATX case
Asus H170 Pro Gaming
Asus H170 PRO
Asus B150 PRO GAMING/aura

Are some of the choices

Go for a Gigabyte mobo, whichever is cheaper. Where in Bangalore do you live and from where are you getting the parts?

Sumair Shariff · Mar 29, 2016

I live in Austin Town and will be getting the parts from the computer market at
SP Road( lot of shops here) or Amazon

best non ocing motherboard: for you

http://www.amazon.in/Asus-H170M-PLUS-CSM-ASUS/dp/B014F7BM3M/ref=sr_1_47?s=computers&ie=UTF8&qid=1459268271&sr=1-47
also i strongly recommand u to replace your poweruspply because i think its the evga 500b made by hec, very poor quality and not build for gaming, you might slightly damage your components with time.

Sumair Shariff · Mar 29, 2016

Recommend a PSU then

Sumair Shariff · Mar 29, 2016

Too expensive!!! Out of my budget http://www.amazon.in/gp/aw/d/B00R07GFS2/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1459300890&sr=8-2&pi=SX200_QL40&keywords=psu+500w&dpPl=1&dpID=41TpLSM4EjL&ref=plSrch

Sumair Shariff · Mar 29, 2016

What do you say on this one or corsair vs / cs

Sumair Shariff · Mar 29, 2016

Guys I think I'll save some more money and buy a H170 PRO GAMING, seasonic 500watt , and a new ATX case...will have to wait, most probably till May-June...
You guys know any site to sell old computer parts in India?

Alan Caldwell · Mar 30, 2016

Try M.G road for PC parts, might be cheap. Go for a Gigabyte mobo, whichever is cheaper. Get a Seasonic S12II-620w or Antec VP650 PSU. Corsair CX/VS are bad quality PSUs. Some shops will buy your PC, try there.

Sumair Shariff · Mar 30, 2016

K...antec VP 650 modular out non modular?

Sumair Shariff · Mar 30, 2016

K...antec VP 650 modular or non modular?

superninja12 · Mar 31, 2016

non modular, try to get a seasonic if possible.

Alan Caldwell · Mar 31, 2016

Sumair Shariff :

Non-modular, you need modular? Anyway you ain't doing a showcase PC.
Seasonic is costlier, this Antec is cheap and good. It will suffice

superninja12 · Mar 31, 2016

Alan Caldwell :

but if u get a seasonic, you will never have to worry abhout the the components inside the pc.
because of the stable voltage and protection/

Alan Caldwell · Apr 1, 2016

If you can, go for the Seasonic S12II-620w like I said above.
