Intel DP67BG @~10.5k+

Asus P8P67 @ 11k+

Imho...the Asus board is better...both performance and feature wise...

Btw what is ur budget? Obviously the i5 will be better than i3!!! We need a budget to work it out...

^^ Pro model is priced around 11k+ but there's another one Asus P67 mobo ie P8P67-M which is around ~8k ;-)

@ OP - if you are getting P67 mobo it's better to get core i5 2500k.

:+1: Yea...for a bit of future proofing...and the 10.5K+tax price is the icing :))

I live in kochi,kerala.Its pretty difficult to get components here,noone has even heard of g.skill ram.Can you tell me how to get it?Also,I have a budget of 30,000,3/4th of which is already taken by i5 2500k+asus p8p67.I need to buy a cabinet and ram within this.any suggestions???I can extend the budget by a max of 2000

I decided to go with z68,since there is not much price difference.But am pretty confused now.Gigabyte GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 seems to be a good board at lower price,but there are some reviews saying its not good enough for overclocking.and I cant figure out the difference between GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3 and GA-Z68X-UD4-B3.Gigabyte terminology is so confusing;(

So guys please tell me which is better asus p8z68-V(not pro) or GA-Z68X-UD3H-B3.Please also specify the prices

Thanks;)
