Hello,
I understand how CPU and GPU affect gaming; but I'm not sure about the motherboard. In what way does the motherboard affect gaming?

Thanks!
 
Solution
Choice of motherboard matters only inasmuch that it needs to support the components which are required for satisfactory gaming performance.

To put it another way, if you take two different motherboard models but use exactly the same components on them (including the same RAM), performance should be the same.

Hope that answers your question.
