Hey guys, I was thinking of building a new pc and I really like how these two mobos look.
The thing is, I can't really tell what the difference between them is. Can someone help me out?

I do believe it's just the features they come with. One is the flagship for the Gaming Series, the other is second best.

 

Also, the g45 has a fugly brown PCB

If I were you I'd buy the cheaper one :P

If you are like most people you don't need a whole lot of PCIe lanes and just about any mobo will do.

It comes down to features and aesthetics. The G45 has a dark brown PCB which looks ugly in person. The G65 had some extra bells and whistles that you probably won't use, like triple sli and 2 extra sata ports
