Its a preference thing really. I prefer Gigabyte motherboards. Traditionally speaking, EVGA is considered the top brand though. You'll find that there is a roughly even split of people who have Gigabyte, MSI, Asus, and ASrock.

All of them are as durable as each other, so it really comes down to what design you like best and what features youre looking for.

There is no set answer for what the best ATX motherboard is. It all depends on the features that you find most important and the ones you don't really care about. For example, you may want USB 3.1 ports instead of RGB lighting. Find a motherboard with the things you want for a price you are comfortable with.

valeman2012 · Jan 3, 2017

RGB is pointeness and waste of power.

I going wait 1 week to see what released.

Gam3r01 · Jan 3, 2017

Why are you asking about something not released yet?
Nobody can tell you what will be the best board to purchase, wait for product launch, read reviews, then post back later with a budget and a list of features you need.

Eximo · Jan 3, 2017

So far we basically have some pictures of the boards themselves to look at. Leaning towards the ASUS Prime series myself.

EVGA makes some interesting boards. Curious to see what they release this time.

It does seem like a lot of the premium boards are going for lighting for some reason. As long as it can be turned off I guess.

valeman2012 · Jan 3, 2017

They already announce the motherboard - Just waiting until next Monday to see what happens.

superninja12 · Jan 3, 2017

noob here, are the kaby lake chips already out?

Gam3r01 · Jan 3, 2017

superninja12 :

Not quite yet, but its the point where most of the products begin listing (though no stock is present)

Eximo · Jan 3, 2017

I haven't seen listing yet, just the product announcements themselves.

So we have press-release tables describing features, but not actual websites to go to and look at each product.

Basically going to do what I did last time with Haswell. Pick a well known brand and hope for the best without reviews, got a little burnt with the early USB 3.0 hibernation bugs.

If you overclock, look to try those new Asrock mobos, great bios and solid boards.

valeman2012 · Jan 5, 2017

Now that everything is released,
I want a New Z270 motherboard
I want New DDR4 Ram (Total 16GB)
I am getting the Intel i5 7600K
I am getting Gigabyte GTX 1050 TI.

Budget under $499 USD (Newegg Only)

Eximo · Jan 5, 2017

Newegg has motherboards and i5s, as of a few hours ago anyway.

$250 for the CPU, Plus memory (~$100)and a motherboard ($150) is going to be the budget right there.

Did you mean to exclude the 1050Ti?

valeman2012 · Jan 5, 2017

I do not care about the Tax.
Changed Budget Cap to $575 USD
For Motherboard (I do not overclock) so it can be H270 or Z270
For Memory (DDR4 Total 16GB)
Nvidia Geforce GTX 1050 Ti (Dual Fan)
Intel i5 7600K

_ Note _

MY NXZT Case has a Case Fan.
Already have Windows 10 Education 64-Bit
Already have EVGA PowerSupply 600 B1 - 600 Watts. (Bronze Plus 80)
Already have 1 TB

Eximo · Jan 5, 2017

i5-7600k = $249.99 (i5-7600 is available for $230, comes with a cooler)
ASRock H270 Pro4 = $99.99 - Cheapest 200 series board from Newegg
GV-N105TOC-4GD = $149.99 - Cheapest dual fan 1050ti from Newegg
TDGED416G2400HC14DC01 = $69.99 Cheapest 2x8GB kit from Newegg

Barely in budget, and there is no CPU cooler included.

valeman2012 · Jan 5, 2017

Eximo :

Oh yea i forgot that the Intel K Series does not have Heatsink and Fan anymore.
- I guess i go for V
Intel I5 7600

* Funny i was looking at the same H270 you stated.

Jsut to make sure my Case has a Case Fan will it work on this motherboard?

ac13044 · Jan 5, 2017

best cpu 6th gen as 7th is same really as the skylake

go with i5 6600k

asus pro gaming is a decent mobo

Eximo · Jan 5, 2017

Only argument in favor of Kabylake is the decent 4.0-4.2 Ghz out of the box frequency, really. It is the 200 series motherboards that are interesting. Just like Z87->Z97 with the first M.2 slots.

ac13044 · Jan 5, 2017

yea the kabylake clcok speeds are sweet doe the z170 and z270 only diff is something about lanes z170 has 20 where the z270 has 24

valeman2012 · Jan 5, 2017

Yes Kaby Lake with the new features in the Motherboard would increase overall performance when using Kaby Lake 7600K (comparing to 6600K)

ac13044 · Jan 5, 2017

not true as everyone is saying it too kabylake and skylake have no real improvements in performance only power saving and igpu stuff for the z270 and z170 only diff is the pci lanes or something along those lines where in 2days world is this better than the current version. no point in upgrading to 7th gen it is the clock speeds in kabylake that are good. doe i go for an i5 6600 or an i7 6700k

valeman2012 · Jan 5, 2017

ac13044 :

I am upgrading away from AMD FX 6300.
So i rather upgrade to most new tech

ac13044 · Jan 5, 2017

yea thats grand doe money to be saved for other things later down the line upgrade to a z270 when cannonlake comes about

valeman2012 · Jan 7, 2017

Eximo :
