As I am not getting any replies to my previous thread I am opening a new thread. I apologies for the same.

I am in a fix right now on which Z68 motherboard to go for. Previously I was suggested to go for a Intel DH67BL motherboard with i5 2400. But now I want go for 2500K with a Z68 motherboard. Currently ASUS P8Z68 -V Pro and ASRock Z68 Extream4. But looks like those will be out of my budget as its priced at 14K+ . There is another motherboard ASRock Z68 PRO3-M this is a m-ATX mobo and suits my requirement. I want to know about the price and availability for the same.

Please let me know if there are other Z68 m-ATX motherboards available for 10-12 K

Buying on 9th or 10th of July.

are u gonna be using crossfire/sli setups? considered the asrock z68 pro3? it shud be priced in the range u r comfortable wid. it also supports dvi outputs which u seem to require and most reviews rate it as a very good mobo too.. the only problem i see is regards availability in india.. i have not enquired abt tat yet. newegg price is 120 USD approx and tat is way cheaper than any of the alternates suggested!!

No I wont be using SLI/Crossfire. at max I may purchase a single midrange GFX Card in a couple of months.

I have read the reviews about the ASRock Z68 PRO3-M and I think it suits my needs. Will check in first week on July about the availability.

Infact.. I just read that even Intel H67 boards has got Virtu support recently. Anyway.. I still have about 2 weeks to think about it before I purchase :)

Ill keep a eye on the this section in think digit for the updates ;)
