What motherboard should i get?

Forum Motherboards & Memory : Motherboards What motherboard should i get?

Hey there I am looking to buy one of these motherboards but not sure witch is best.

Gigabyte Z68X-UD5-B3

MSI Big Bang Xpower 3-Way SLI & CrossfireX X58

Asrock Fatal1ty P67 Professional Series

ASUS Rampage III Formula

I like the AsRock style the best but I want the most not just looking good

I play pc games a lot Starcraft 2 Dirt 3 Portal COD and so on so I needs the good stuff

I am open to amd but none of the cpu's seem any good compared to Intel i52500k or i7 that's want I'll be getting with the board but if anyone has amd that is as good or better the the i52500k i7 let me know

Well lets gets this straight first, What cpu are u getting? LGA 1136 or lga 1155, bec two boards you have are lga 1136 and other 2 are lga 1155. Also if you willing to pay $300 for motherboard, you can get the Gigabyte Z68X-UD7-B3 which very good boards.A i5 2500k($210) benchmarks comes close to i7-970 around $400-$500.i7 2600k and 990x are overkill, only uses are video encoding. Also those boards you showing are used for tri-sli/cf. Are you going to tri sli/cf? They dont make much difference in dual sli/cf because software issue usually dont make most use of tri gpus .Boards like p8p67 pro/deluxe, ud4/5/7 are good for OC boards.
