Im struggling between some mobos, i want to finish this build asap but i still cant figure out if i should get a matx or an atx, and besides that, which one..
specs:
case: corsair 400c
cpu: i5-6500 (evo 212)
ram: 8gb
psu: seasonic s2 620w
hdd: 3tb
gpu: gtx1060 3gb

i was going for the b150 pro gaming aura, but realized that there are cheaper mobos that i could go for since the only upgrade i need is another 8gb ram stick, ( i honestly dont care about flashy things like leds or sli tbh) and about budget, less than 120 us bucks (price of b150 pro gaming). I have no idea if a matx would be a good idea, but since i dont plan to upgrade it in the future (besides 8 more gb of ram) i think thats what i actually should get. thanks ! ! !

Few words.

Went with Kaby Lake CPU that is a bit better than Skylake's i5-6500, while costing the same,
comparison: http://cpu.userbenchmark.com/Compare/Intel-Core-i5-6500-vs-Intel-Core-i5-7500/3513vs3648

Also added 2x 4GB 2400 Mhz RAM which you can easily upgrade to 16GB since MoBo has 4 RAM slots. Picked an ATX MoBo for your build since aesthetically, ATX MoBo has better fit into 400C than mATX MoBo. Under the spoiler are 2 images, one is mATX MoBo in 400C, another one is ATX MoBo in 400C.

I also added SSD for OS that you can remove if build is too expensive for you. And changed out S12II-620 PSU with M12II-520 EVO PSU to get fully modular cables. Oh, CPU comes with Intel's stock CPU cooler and it doesn't need aftermarket CPU cooler.
