Hello everyone.

I'm planning to buy a new Motherboard & Processor & Ram.

I'm confused with which motherboard to go with. I want to buy the Intel 7th Gen.

Z270 or H270 or the 250 or the 210.

I want the basic Mobo. I don't need the nvme or msata ports. a basic mobo with 4 rams slots, 2 pci-e x16 slot for SLi & overclocking capability (maybe). Will be getting either a i5 7600K (maybe).

Please also suggest an mobo for an i5 7500 or 7600.

Suggest Gigabyte.

Thanks in Advance.

Going to have to nail down what you want to do to give an answer. Z270 is for overclocking and more of them support sli. H270 has same features except no overclocking and fewer have SLI. My suggestion is typically get a b250 if you're not getting a k series processor or a z270 if you are getting a k. Only time I'd ever suggest a h270 would be someone building with a 7700 non k with like a 1080. SLI is almost pointless at this time some new games it gives zero extra fps. A lot is less than a 20% gain. Better off buying a better single gpu

The H270 boards offer more options that you say you do not need, SLI is not one of them most can do Xfire but not SLI.
I would pass on the 210 their very basic and usally lower quality, get the B250.
For SLI your going to need the Z270 board from their you might as well buy the K processor for overclocking.
