ASUS Sabertooth Z77 or MSI Z77A G45 thunderbolt?

[archvince]

Which one is better? I need to get a new mobo since my old H61's RAM slot won't work anymore

Which among these two should I get? I am looking for something that would be future-proof since I might upgrade into an i5 (from my current i3 processor)

Thank you

The thing is, i am stuck with only these two mobos as they are the only 2nd hand ones available..

then thas a big no no, get a brand new mobo mate. save yourself the trouble...side note: how much are they going for?

 

[archvince]

the Sabertooth goes for about 220$ (2nd hand)

And the MSI z77 goes for about 145$ (2nd hand)
