whichever one has the features you need

just compare them on the website

obviously if you dont need the features of the pro gaming, then get the cheaper A version

Or looks the nicest

Or is the cheapest

Or all three at the same time.

I have a budget of about 200-250$CAD and was looking at these three motherboards. However i cannot decide which one. This is my first build, so if the motherboards are user friendly that would be great. If it has great cooling ,and a good amount of features that would be an added bonus. I am open to any suggestion and Thank You

I was thinking either of the EVga supernova 750w or the supernova 850w here are the links http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817438017

750W would be able to run 1080 SLI easily. For a single GPU, a quality 550W unit would be fine. (EVGA G2 is fine, if you want anything a bit cheaper look here: https://linustechtips.com/main/topic/406160-psu-ranking-and-tiers/#comment-5473414
