    hi guys! hope you all doing great! im buying a new motherboard today on newegg, but i wanna know the difference between these 3

    Newegg.com - ASRock H77 Pro4/MVP LGA 1155 Intel H77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard

    and

    Newegg.com - MSI Z77A-G43 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS

    finally this

    Newegg.com - MSI Z77A-G45 LGA 1155 Intel Z77 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard with UEFI BIOS


    im putting this processor inside of it

    Newegg.com - Intel Core i5-3570 Ivy Bridge 3.4GHz (3.8GHz Turbo Boost) LGA 1155 77W Quad-Core Desktop Processor Intel HD Graphics 2500 BX80637i53570

    and an ati 5850 videocard with 16 gb ram

    Price wise, what would be the best choice? im not interested in overclocking, just to run some awesome games. and what´s the deal between the G43 and the G45? one is much cheapper than the other and both seem the same. thx for your time!!!!

    if your not overclocking, then just get the cheapest one.


    As to the 2 MSI boards, don't just look at the pictures, read the details for each board, its blatantly obvious the differences if you actually read the specs for them.





    the Asrock has the plain H77 Chipset, bottom of the barrel, basic use chipset which is what you probably want if your not interested in Overclocking.


    If your ever thinking of running Dual Video cards down the road, then the Z77 Boards are probably your better choices.

    the more expensive Z77 listed has Support for Nvidia SLI besides just AMD Crossfire.
