Best No Overclock Single GPU Mobo

cyrusfreeberg · Apr 2, 2017

Hey there all, this is my first post and apologize in advance if this has already been covered (I couldn't find anything in my searches).

I'm looking to put together I new budget gaming pc and am having trouble with choosing a motherboard (to be used with an i5 7400)

I do not need overclocking or more than a single GPU, but will be using DDR4 Ram and would like good audio etc from a motherboard. I'll also be using an SSD.

I'm not on a super tight budget but do want something reliable and affordable for the price.

Any advice or suggestions?

Thanks,
Cyrus

single gpu non overclockable motherboards.. plenty of sata ports.. usb 3.1 supports ddr4 upto 2400,mhz anything higher will be limited to 2400mhz. higher speed ram is only supported on overclocking motherboards (z270 series)

do not choose a b150 h110 or z170 motherboard because you will be unable to use the motherboard without updating the bios because these 100 series motherboards do not support 7th gen kaby lake cpus out of the box. (just in case someone advises you to purchase one of those because they maybe a few dollars cheaper) and you can not update the bios without a 6th gen skylake cpu and you will be back on tomshardware thinking you have broken something!

So you just need a motherboard? What's your budget?
