Obviously, they are different chip sets. But they are the same socket. Would I be looking at any difference in performance? I know that H170A is supposedly the "better" chipset, but is it a big factor? They both appear to have similar features, etc. but the h170 costs more. I'm looking for a decent budget gaming board for a Skylake chip like a 6700 or 6500 that I'm not going to OC, pairing with a RX 480 and maybe adding another 480 towards Christmas or next year.

"Performance"? No. Not at all.

Do you know if there is like any difference at all besides chipset?

The B150 may have less USB 3.0 ports and you cannot do RAID with it, but that's about it. There's virtually no performance difference other wise.

The features. Say, more usb ports, better pcie layout, prettier looks... price.....

 

Nothing that matters too terribly much.

Alright, that helps, since I won't be running any RAID operations and I can get USB hubs  thanks
