Thanks in advance for your help. I am in the planning stage of building only my 2nd home desktop PC that I use primarily for gaming/internet/email. I have two friends recommending two different motherboards that I have listed below. I am budget minded, but I want the best performance for the dollar. Since the price difference is the obvious difference between these two boards, I need help determining what else I am losing going with the cheaper mobo.
- Will the cheaper mobo still support all of the other components I have listed?
- Will the my PC perform at the same level with the mobo?
- Am I only losing bells and whistles going with the cheaper version and not performance?
