I asking for this comparison because weird position of choosing motherboard.
Because i choose asus H170 pro gaming but it is not available with dealer.
So remaining options are H170 pro and Z170 K but Z170 K little higher price like 25$ but he is saying Z170 K would be great buy but i thought of Asus B150 Pro gaming but the dealer is saying H170 and Z170 is better in build quality and Features. Asus H170 Pro and B170 Pro gaming are almost similar in price
I am confused.Please Help

Hello... This chart helps me understand the different models, features, and connections available with each... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LGA_1151

I see 2 less usb3 ports, and half as many PCIe 3.0 channels... also the B models will have the older "PCI" slots for older plug in cards still in use, something you don't need?... and also less MB audio output connections. I consider the "B" MB's as the Older Business and older "PCI" card upgrade needs. Because of the extra PCI slots this will be a Full-Size ATX MB, and need a case to fit it.

The H170-Pro is looks very similar to the B170 in specs too... PCI slots... Full ATX and no extra audio either. B /...

Have you considered any Gigabyte options? I'm a audio guy, and I like a lot of MB audio connection options for mine... also in a micro ATX size.
