asus p8z77-m vs gigabyte ga-z77m-d3h

which one and why ?
mostly gaming

Pretty much same + MobO doesn't affect gaming anyway..

BTW instead of asking part by part pls post complete req..(first i7, now MobO...)

H

i still need a good mobo

which one owuld u suggest?
anything better in 10k ?

Asus P8Z77-M is far better. Atleast you can OC with this board decently.

I don't think you can find GA-Z77M-d3h at the first place.
If you can find it, then why not? You are getting a board having almost same features as P8Z77-M at ~3K(or more) lower price.

And what about its VRM?

For gaming, VRM quality isn't required.
As OP doesn't mention anything about overclocking, I'd to take it granted that he won't overclock and thus that suggestion.

ASUS P8Z77-M i have this in mind anywy

Yeah agree with you Bro...
Asus MobO has a VRM heatsink ..

Pls give some more of your requirements since if you ask for mobo in that way i suggest to go for this :-D

H

AFAIK no i5 3750k exists :lol:

you are either talking about i5-3570k or i7 3770k
I recommend saving cash by getting a better graphics card for your rig :-D

H

i5-3570k
im sorry its i5-3570k i just get confused sometimes
uhm well what do i do about the board
i have a graphic card il update it in a few months

If 10k budget then get AsRock Z77 Extreme 4. The best available option and specs are same as P8Z77-M Pro, which costs around 2k more.

What if VRMs blow away while OCing? Asus has heatsink in the VRM areas so is a better choice.

And there is nothing to be mentioned here. He is going for an unlocked processor with a Z77 board. That tells the whole story that OP is gonna OC. :wink:

H

is Asrock good ? i found alot of bad reviews on its service and product too some say its good too but still
itl be risky

asrock looks good though D:

Nice board... AFAIK ;-)

H

have you used one ?

Nope..
BTW choose 1 you like

AsRock Z77 Extreme 4 is really a good motherboard. Has almost same specs as that of Asus P8Z77-M Pro.

J

I juz want to know if you don't want to overclock at all and juz need the Motherboard and processor for playing good games at high performance then which motherboard and processor would be the best if you don't want to overclock at all.

AsRock's RMA is handled by Acel Frontline and Digicare Smartlink (handles MSI, Intel and Gigabyte's RMA as well). Both provide good service. If you are still not satisfied with AsRock, then its better you shell out some more and get the P8Z77-M PRO for 2k more.

Its always better to solve the problem before facing it.
@OP: well, buy what you feel.

If you are not into overclocking, then it is a descent board. Otherwise not. It have vcore drop = LLC problem.

Done.

Check the thread.

well then hows ASUS P8Z77-M ??? d6bmg

for OCing

Descent upto 4.5GHz at max. DOn't except much from it.

just get a ASUS P8Z77-M PRo @ 10.7k

is it good for OCing ?

^^ I have ASUS P8Z77-M and i was able to achieve 4.6 ghz stable OC with it. It may go further but i did not try. So i guess M "Pro" will easily overclock further.

nikhilsharma007nikx said:

unless you are aiming for 4.8 Ghz+ speed ... actually, if you only can just run the cpu @ 4.5 Ghz speed it's more than enough and you have world's one of the best performing cpu ;-)

then hows ASUS P8 Z77 V LX for ocing ???

nikhilsharma007nikx said:

Very bad. Avoid it.

but why ??? du u have other suggestions for some ATX mobos on this price range cause ATX looks cool in the CABBY!!!!!!!!!!

no VRM heatsink and talking about cool looks on matx mobo - have a look at ASUS Maximus V GENE or ASUS Maximus IV GENE-Z ;-)

ASUS P8Z77-V PRO vs ASUS P8Z77-V which is better?

take the price as ur POV so which is the best

obviously the V-Pro if you want some very good OC performance.

not ocing much like a pro but till 4.7 ghz is sufficient and will be buying corsair h60 cooler hows it then i saw some results it was written that the mobo can easily overclock much!!!!!!till 4.8 ghz easily

well only overclcok to 4.8 ghz with a h6o and it can easily achive it

then ASUS P8Z77-V is enough for the job ;-)

ad yes one more thing about triple graphics card will it handle them at ease!

you better use 2x gfx cards with this mobo as the no.3 pci-e card will under perform because it will run in pci-e x4 mode though if the 3rd card is for physX then there will be no such issue.

hmm then is this mobo worht it or i should get a sabertooth z77 cause it doesnt have wifi moudule but for the price ithink tha its good i saw on delta
Asus MotherBoard - P8Z77-V - www.deltapage.com
Asus MotherBoard - SABERTOOTH Z77 - www.deltapage.com
Asus MotherBoard - P8Z77-V PRO - www.deltapage.com
wich one and yes is delta trusted!

wifi feature can be added later anytime and if a durable and built to last mobo is what you are looking for then SaberToth Z77 is highly recommended.

I've not dealt with delta Peripherals personally but so can't comment on how reliable they are ...

10x for ur suggestions !!!

R

Delta has some very good prices on mobos.Is it ok to buy from them online?

hmm dont know pls ask from somebody and pm me
