Choosing Motherboard

Hi, Want to build my next gaming pc.

I want a motherboard with only 2 PCIe slots, Most motherboards that I have seen like this, have few features in other aspects, like capacity for ram, overclock, no gaming look... etc ...

 

I only want a micro Atx with 2 PCIe slots because I like small cases and on the other hand I do not usually do SLI, nor have many things in the PCIe ... only a single gpu and a soundcard.

 

I would also like to have synchronized function of RGB.

Which motherboard do you recommend?

you sure you dont mean PCIe? PCI is kinda outdated and mostly gone

I spent $2500 on building my PC and all i do with it is play no games atm & watch anime at 1080p(finally) watch YT and write essays...  nothing, it just sits there collecting dust...

Builds:

The Toaster Project! Northern Bee!

 

The original LAN PC build log! (Old, dead and replaced by The Toaster Project & 5.0)

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

You don't need a sound card. I'd get a Strix ITX board.
