This is my first build, i really can't decide on which motherboard to buy
at first i was considering getting the
GIGABYTE GA-P55-UD3L V2.0 - Socket 1156 - Chipset P55 (http://www.amazon.co.uk/GIGABYTE-GA-P55-UD3L-V2-0-Chipset-Syringe/dp/B0041HN89I/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1283622959&sr=8-4)
until i found this :
Gigabyte SKT-1156 GA-P55A-UD4 Motherboard (http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gigabyte-GA-P55A-UD4-SKT-1156-Motherboard/dp/B002UX9IB2/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1283967004&sr=1-1)
i know that i need a socket 1156 and it must support ddr3 although i'm not sure if i should buy the first one because
it doesn't have usb 3 or the increased SATA speeds (6gb/s)
i am saving and have around £110
should i spend more and go for the Gigabyte SKT-1156 GA-P55A-UD4?
i'm aiming for a gaming PC, so advice would be appreciated or an alternative mobo that is appealing to me
#note i'm not going to go £200+ for a mobo.
I already have the following hardware :
2 x GIGABYTE HD 5770's (i plan on being able to crossfire)
Intel i5 processor w/ stock fan
4 x 1GB ddr3 ram sticks
SPIRE 650w PSU
i'm using my old hdd and dvd writer
