Is this a good board for the i5 8600? (Asrock B360)

[Brian99]

Im making a new build and this mobo seems like a good board but I wanted to ask opinions first.

Asrock B360

Im not looking for best of the best or a i7 because I wont need that much power and even in the off chance I ever do the next step is a i7 8700. How much stronger could one be from the other? If I were a betting man once they both hit cpu boss there scores will be fairly close to each other. Anyway will that board be good enough for a i5 8600?

It is a very good board, I'd probably pick that specific one for myself with i5 8600

Ty for your reply. I normally feel confident when it comes to computers because I build them but with mobos its so hard to tell whats good and whats not because theres so many variations and editions from every manufacturer. I sometimes wish mobos were simple.

Fine for a locked coffee lake cpu.

In fact it's hard to go wrong with an Asrock board nowadays anyway, they've really stepped up their game the last few years.
