Can anyone suggest a MB for 24/7 use? Will be used in a multifunction PC that run's 24/7 with IP camera software, weather software and used for normal PC use.

 

It has to be a mini ITX intel 1151 series, will be using a i7 8700, 32GB of ram.....Ip cam software does not support AMD it needs quick sync.

 

Can a gaming MB last 5 years running 24/7?

 

My current build is on a Asus workstation MB with a i5 and 8GB ram it's been going for years rock solid but needs a update.

consumer boards these days can run pretty good 24/7. you could go with a asus (or other company) business board, but a solid consumer board should be enough in my opinion

It is pricey but if you really need the best motherboard possible for the i7 8700 and 32gb of ram for 24/7 usage going with the exotic mini-ITX format, I'd suggest the Asus ROG STRIX Z370-I

good choise, the z370i pro carbon from msi is a great choise too in my opinion, but if you have the money for that, go for it
