I'm buying a new PC.
But confused with mobos
I came across with ASUS P8Z68-V PRO/GEN3, ASUS P8Z68-V GEN3, Asus Maximus V GENE.
But can't decide which is better

Processor- i5 2500k
Graphics card- GTX 560 ti

Pick up P8Z68-V Pro/Gen 3.

I don't like Maximus V Gene-Z because it is mATX.

For graphic card, pick up HD 7850 instead of GTX 560 Ti. GTX 560 Ti is previous generation. HD 7850 is better and power efficient.

For P8Z68-V Pro/Gen 3 you need to have a full tower cabinet too.

If you don't need a full ATX mobo then you can opt for one of the best ROG series mobo ie Asus Maximus V GENE at Rs. 14.4k only.
