Hi all,
I'm after some mobo recommendations as my i7 930 has recently died and need to upgrade. So I'm looking to go with a 3570k as the rig is primarily just for gaming.
As for my mobo choice I have a few requirements, as I run 2 6970s it needs crossfire support but also a good cool design in general as they generate a fair bit of heat, either built in or come with a wifi card and decent built in sound.
My main issue with my current rig was heat and space so I am getting a CM HAF 932 or X or similar, I already have a corsair H80 cooler and run 3hdds 1ssd.
Just as an idea I have been looking at boards like the sniper3, Asus Maximus V and a couple asrock ones as well. Just not sure if I'm wasting money with these boards or if they really are worth the price tag for my needs, any opinions would be awesome.
Cheers
Nick
