Can't choose motherboard

[masryp]

hello

i wanna built a new system and can't decide what motherboard to buy.
i am not an overclocker, like to play games and a littlebit videoconverting.
it should by a solid and stable board because my pc is on almost 24/7.
at the moment i have a gigabyte p55-usb3, the new system should be socket 1155 with core i7 2600.
the maximum budget for the motherboard is 200€.
Any suggestions?

thanks on advance

What you are describing as your needs makes waiting for a Z68 worthwhile - a few weeks.
If you must buy now, and, you are not OCing, and, you are getting the 2600 (not k), and you want onboard graphics, and you want ATX, then you don't need a P67 MB, so this is good for you:

thanks for the reply.
i am not gonna use onboard graphics, i am thinking of a nvidia gtx560ti graphics card from gigabyte or msi, or better depends on what is coming in a few monts.
i read that if you go for a graphics card you better do p67 mobo.
if that can help you in making suggestions for me.

thanks for any help in advice that you can give me

P67 lacks a video out port where H67 has one (or two). You can use a discreet GPU with H67 but the onboard video out is disabled.
If the GTX560 is the only card you plan to use, wait for the Z68 board and you can OC (if you change your mind) and use onboard graphics + your discreet GPU.
Otherwise I can point you at a P67 now. mATX or ATX?

Great case (same one I have
For what you are doing, a middle-of-the-line board is perfect. I suggest this:
