New motherboard recomendation

Nfalcon87 · Nov 26, 2017

Okay so I'm looking for a motherboard to go along with an i7-7700k with a Corsair h60 cooler and a msi gtx 1060. What do you guys suggest. The most I can spend is 100$

Disregard the above bit. When I went to the newegg site, the above MB still had $35 rebate card you will receive later in the mail from ASUS. So your upfront cost is 135, but later you get 35 back that you can spend on something (not immediately clear to me what that might be)

Also I distrust Asus MBs based on recent multiple QA issues. So bowing to my own prejudices , I would be much more comfortable recommending this one:
