Howdy all
Or should I say Good Morning!? LOL
Anyways, I'm trying to build a gaming PC around the 6600k and GTX 1060 or RX480 with the possibility of upgrades. I'd like to get a mid-range motherboard that gives me the most for my money (up to $200) so I've been researching and came up with a list of middle of the road alternatives that I will look for on Black Friday.
So far these have made it into my list:
MSI Gaming M5 and M7
Gigabyte Gaming 5 and 6
Asrock Extreme 6
Asrock Gaming K6
Gigabyte UD5
I'm building this PC for a young gamer that will be using this computer for at least 5 years, so I am hoping to find a mobo that can handle overclocking to a decent degree and also has good quality materials. I've been trying to figure out this power phase business but haven't really succeeded so far lol. Though I assume the more power phases the better.
Feel free to suggest any mobos that you think are missing from my list and let me know which one you'd prefer among these (I've seen some of these for the same price so I would have a hard time choosing). Thanks!
