Hi,I am planning to buy one of these two motherboards, but I dont know which one. I dont want to spend extra money if I dont have to, also I dont plan to overclock manually. My components are:

CPU i5-6500 3.2 Mhz
GPU Asus GTX1060 DUAL OC 6GB
RAM 2x8GB Kingston DDR4 2133mhz

 
Solution
I would go for a B250 mobo with that setup, a Z270 mobo would be pointless and so would an H270 mobo unless you need some feature H270 has that B250 does not.

My goal is to get maximum of my components without manually OC, mobo that I have right now is basic one. In local store I manage to find only this mobo MSI B250 Gaming M3 and it is the same price as H270. I use my rig mostly for gaming. Do you think I would be better with B250?
