Looking for durable motherboard for i5 4440 cpu. i'm not into overclocking,SLI/crossfire at all. just need durable MB with couple of usb3. sata 3 etc. nothing fancy.

i heard gigabyte and asus are two most reliable brands.

what is your budget ?

what are the advantages of newer H97 boards over b85m boards? (all i seen it has cloud/wireless connection with smartphones functions which i can live without)

i dislike my current msi 970a-g46 i prefer new ones be asus or gigabyte. yesterday amazon was selling Asus H97M-E for 7k was tempted but not sure going over the budget a good idea for MB. i need to save some money for intel cpu.

That price is great for MSI but i have msi 970a-g46 right now which i don't like at all. prefer to much more popular gigabyte or asus. i had the chance to purchase Gigabyte B85M-D3H for good price few days ago. but there is about few rev. versions of it not sure which version i'm getting from flipkart or amazon site.

Gigabyte GA-B75M-D3H is an good option
