Hello, I was looking at these two motherboards,

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

for the i7 2600k.

However, one says that its slot type is Core i7 / i5 / i3 (LGA1155) while another says that its is Core i7 / i5 / i3 / Pentium (LGA1155)
I'm wondering if they both work with the 2600k.

Thanks!

Both are one in the same = 1155 socket is all you have to concern yourself with

The only different is the feature, the first link motherboard have PCI-E Gen 3.0 awhile the second link motherboard have PCI-E 2.0... So if you want to choose one, get the second link because IvyBridge isn't worth upgrading over the current SB...
