Hey there, i've finaly decided its time to upgrade from my i7 920, to either a 3570k or 3770k.Im not the best when it comes to mobo's etc, I've been looking and im quite intrested in the ASUS Maximus V Formula but is it worth the exrta £100 over boards such as the MSI Z77A-GD65 etc any adive would be great
Its not really worth it. You'll notice the difference, but the difference isn't super significant. I've done builds using both and it doesn't make a huge amount of difference.
Yea plus some of the money is the fact that its an ASUS motherboard thats Higher up in there range of motherboards meaning your paying premium because theyre well known.
