Is Intel's DH67BL any good?

[danw25]

I got a great deal on a DH67BL mother board i want to go with my i5 2500K

is it any good? or should spend an extra 100$ for a gigabyte or asus board?

gonna use it for casual gaming nothing major, so how much of a factor is the mother board.

p.s got a ASUS readon HD 6850 so not going to use the HDMI output of the board

thanks !

For a K series CPU it is better to get a P67 board. The intel H board would have been good if you where planning on using the IGP on the CPU.

right

so the cheapest one i could find is this one Gigabyte GA-P67A-UD3

will that suit my needs?

Yes it is a good board for a single GPU system.

What about to do a home work before u buy it?

There is a reason for it. VGA is old and low quality these days.

PS2 is not needed, when most mouse and keyboard devices are USB.

And its a low end stripped of regular features.

Also Intel is the best in CPU's making, but in the mobo world, its quality is great, but it lacks a lots of other features that other makers include.

So its no need to get all mad about it.

So homework or aske here before the purchase is made : )
