Best z68 mobo

Solution


1, 2) you can't use that onboard video if you don't get the board that supports it (and that includes quick sync), so p67 boards should be avoided in $120+ ballpark

if you think you don't need more than 2 pci-e 3.0 slots, 2 sata3 / 4 sata2 ports, 2 usb3.0 / 4(+8 via 4 extra headers on board) usb2.0 ports then asrock z68 gen3 extreme3 is an absolute best bang for your buck

gen3 extreme4 gives you extra pci-e slot, extra pair of usb3.0 and sata3 ports and more bundled stuff (i.e. cables, front usb3.0 panel) but costs an extra $40-50
