Hi there, I am trying to find a good motherboard to accompany core i7 5820k. I was looking to Asus motherboards but I see many problems regarding reliability. Do you have any suggestion because I am in a hurry to get my pc build as fast as possible. Thanks in advance

Budget?

I would recommend ASUS X99-A or ASUS Sabertooth in the below $320 range

If you got $400

go for X99-Deluxe(You get better sound quality and Onboard Wifi)

Got $500?

ASUS RAMPAGE V EXTREME(You get way better sound quality and Onboard Wifi and supreme oc capability)

 I cannot exceed the money of X99 Deluxe but especially for the Deluxe I hear complaints about stability. Basically I was between Asus X99-A or Asus Sanertooth or the X99 Deluxe like you mentioned.

 So what is your final suggestion. I don't mind paying a bit extra for the deluxe if it's right in the long run.

An asus x99-a. You most likely don't need the extra features of the deluxe, and that's really all it offers for the extra money: features. Reliability should be roughly the same.

Don't ask to ask, just ask... please 🤨

 Ok something final. I've read somewhere in pc magazine review I think that the speed of pci e ports is lower? Can it be true? Thanks a lot for the replies
