[theereal]

So, yesterday I ordered the h97 Gaming 3 from MSI, but then I stumbled upon the z97s SLI Krait Edition from MSI, which Is better and what are the differences?

Im getting the nzxt s340 and the supernova g2 750.

H = no overclocking

You already ordered, don't worry. You don't have a processor that needs the z97.

The z97s (what does the "s" stand for btw?) looks much better, might cancel the order And Its only 10$ more

Will the Z97S be compatible with a s340 and a supernova g2 750?

Yes it will.

 

You can use PCPartPicker (link in my signature) to find compatibility issues.

I saw someone write In a post on tomshardware that the krait had an older version of PCIe lanes?

Not on the Z97 chipset. It should be fine. It's a great board for the price.
