Heya, trying to choose an H170 series mobo. Can anyone tell me the differences between the variants? I plan on aiming for an I5 6500, GTX 1060 to game at 1080p.

H170 is basically Z170 without overclocking support.

 

The only thing the motherboard effects is features.

✨PC Specs✨

AMD Ryzen 7 3800X | MSI MPG B550 Gaming Plus | 16GB Team T-Force 3400MHz | Zotac GTX 1080 AMP EXTREME

BeQuiet Dark Rock Pro 4 | Samsung 850 EVO 250GB | NZXT 750W | Phanteks Eclipse P400A

Extras: ASUS Zephyrus G14 (2021) | OnePlus 7 Pro | Fully restored Robosapien V2, Omnibot 2000, Omnibot 5402

So performance wise I should be okay? Is there any particular models that are better than others?

The motherboard doesn't effect performance at all.

 

Pick whatever one that has the features you want and looks nice to you.
