I'm pretty much set on the Gigabyte H170 Gaming 3 to run an i5 6500, but everywhere I go everyone says that the Z170 boards are the way to go. I don't feel like spending much more money as i'm past my budget by 200 dollars, I'm not planning to OC, this build is an upgrade from a DDR3 FX 8320 board and I just want increased framerate, so would it really be worth an extra 75 dollars to get a Z170 on a budget or should I stick with my current choice?
