Hello guys,
A few months ago I decided to create a new build, aimed for gaming but with a good OC capability to explore.
My build have the following components at the moment:
So now that you have met my boy let's talk about serious stuff, my MSI Motherboard died on me and it isn't covered by the warranty so I will need get a new one but I need you advice/help to pick the right one, now with 7th Gen Intel CPU "Kabylake" a new Chipset was born (270 series) and these motherboards are compatible with my "old" 6th Gen so, should I aim for a motherboard with the newest chipset, looking forward in the future or should I stick with the Z170 series?
My budget is around 200€ I can raise a bit more if the Motherboard justifies.
By the time I was building this build I was thinking about a MSI powered PC but nevermind that now
All my ASUS motherboards are still alive and with good health the last MSI motherboard, before this one also gave me problems.
So putting this I have a few Motherboards in sight:
So what's your opinion? Wich motherboard should I get?
PS: I will also upgrade my PSU to a Seasonic M12II Evo Edition 620W Full Modular.
