As the title says Im looking for a mid end or lowish top end motherboard that supports SLI.
It does however has to be a 1150 socket as I have an i7-4790k.
The gpu's are 1080s but that is irrelevant Im guessing.
Would prefer on that has a spot for the m.2 ssd
I was looking at the Asus z97 pro and the MSI Krayt. Should I be looking at certain others?
Price really can go to £150.

Thanks

I have the MSI-z97 sli Krait. No issues with it but if you are planning on getting a M.2, it only supports PCI-Express 3.0 x2, so you will not be able to realize the full performance of a lot of the newer high end M.2's like the Samsung 950 Pro.

Also the issue im having is a lot of these are now discontinued lines according to sellers (scan no stock and amazon low, Overclockers no longer stocking)
I had the Asus z97 pro gamer motherboard but had an issue where it blew my hdd & ssd so I rma'd it and now they have no more stock of that one!
