Need help choosing an ideal motherboard for an Intel Xeon E3 1290 processor.

Would prefer for it to be a Gigabyte motherboard

why the e3 1290 when you can get a e3 1230v2 for much cheaper and performing better?

any good h77 board will do. if you are looking for something from gigabyte, id suggest the h77m-d3h

The H77M-D3H doesnt list the E3 1290 as a compatible processor, only the E3 1290 V2

it works fine. and im not talking about the e3 1290v2, im talking about the 1230v2, a xeon that goes for half the price but performs about the same
