What I use computer for:

- graphics editing: paintshop pro, coreldraw
- games: 3d - far cry 3, GTA IV, project blackout, counter strike....
Note:
- budget is really tight, so please no other recommandations.
I just need opinions on performance gain compared to old computer.
Questions:
- is Z77 / H77 chipset better than B75 ?
I mean, some performance gain, besides Overclocking options, PCIe 3.0, number of SATA/USB ports, Intel Rapid Storage Technology, Intel Anti-Theft Technology, Smart Response Technology, Intel vPro - options which I will never use.
Is one of these motherboards faster / better ?
