Which Motherboard?

[Jjon_]

I've been looking to upgrade my pc for a long time now, and have come to this decision -  https://www.mindfactory.de/shopping_cart.php/basket_action/load_basket_extern/id/9fa25c221606b1bbb55e3959f7debb881cb8a7ca7bcbb93623e

 

But I can't decide if I want to spend more on the ASRock Fatal1ty Z97 Killer (Z version is only 7€ more than H version) or maybe even the Asus H97-Pro Gamer Gaming MB (For 75€ with cashback) 

I've been looking at the ASRock H97 Anniversary because of it's really low price, but should I spend a little more on the mobo? I dont know ...

There's not much point in going for a Z series board with that CPU. Only go for it if you plan on SLI in the future (though, not all Z series board support SLI) Though, with an AMD card, it's unlikely you'll be needing that. 

 

The H97 Anniversary is a good choice. 

 

Also, change out the SSD. The V300 series is terrible. Something like a Crucial BX100, Samsung 850/40 EVO or SanDisk SSD Plus are good choices.

Just get the cheapest one that has the features that you want it´s that simple don´t read all the specs and see that one has more than the other if you don´t need those features

Hm okay, 120GB SanDisk Plus 2.5 is the same price so I'll go with that one. I also think I will get the Asus h97 pro gamer because with the cashback it's only 10$ more than the ASRock Annivversary and has alot more features (Which I don't know if I'll need but just to be on the safe side)
