I am looking at replacing the motherboard in my custom PC.
I have a few ideas of what I am going to buy next Month. Any of you have a recommendation of which one I should buy?
Here are the options for the motherboard that I am going to buy to replace my garbage Gigabyte Motherboard:

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813132414&cm_re=Z97-_-13-132-414-_-Product
Which one should I go with? |

| Go to a repair shop you are going to end up with hardware that is not compatible if you don't. |

if you're okay with using DDR3 ram, i suggest picking up an older chipset and motherboard for cheap

| How about you stop buying overpriced mobos and get something better than a GTX 650. |

buy a better heatsink, your motherboard is OK the heatsink increases your FPS but it gets really hot so you are gonna want another heatsink to take the hot from the other heatsink, therefore doubling your FPS the RAM is what keeps it cool so dont change the RAM |

@XDark
Buying a new graphics card wouldn't be beneficial for me at this point. My board is failing and I am looking for a new board. |

Anyways, my advice is, don't get the sabertooth because although they are durable, they aren't the fastest mobos around.
Ill take the ASUS PRO GAMER one if I were you |

Also, buy a 1000watt PSU. The PSU increases your CPU's clock rate. Underclock your cpu by a factor of 0.5 because the PSUs watts will make it go too fast.

| Look, XDark can we just get over the whole debate on why my PC is a terrible PC. Lets just agree that if it works it works and lets leave it alone. I think the ASUS PRO GAMER would be a good replacement. |

@Hypo
Here's the thing, I don't need anything overboard. I just need something reliable. Gigabyte GA Z97X-UD7 TH boards are P.O.S so I am looking for a good replacement. I will not buy from Gigabyte again. |

Oh I have an idea I'll buy a Z75 board and jam my god damn Intel Xeon in it until it fits the damn socket! That is a good idea, I'll break off five pins on the board and stick my Haswell CPU in there. It probably won't WORK but hey who needs a working computer these days?! |
