Hello
So I am about to purchase a Z77 board. It was suggested to me to buy a AsRock Extreme 4.
Before I make this move should I look at any other boards and makers?
I will go i5 or i7 for the build.
I will add my hd which is a WD Calvier Black 500gb Sata II or III. Not sure which one it is.
I want something with at least 3 sata 6gbp ports for 2 hd's and one ssd. Decent LAN card, I have up to 200mbps Internet speed. Good sound card, good controllers and all(such as the Marvells, Intels', ex.), which ever are the good ones.
At least 2 pic-e x16 3.0 slots for SLI in the future, a decent sound card (chip), and a decent amount of USB connections.
I have about 200 dollars to spend.
I am in a rush because my Dell computer died.
I need a computer now for taking online classes ASAP. I want the computer to play games of course.
The cheaper the board the better for now.
With that what are some other suggestions for mb's?
Should I just get a low priced board and later get a better one? Or should I try to get the best I can afford now? I don't have to have SLI now, it's a want not a need.
I do not know alot about the Z77 boards but trying to learn. Don't know what they are fully capable of.
Help please
