IIRC Intel's B naming on their chipsets means that the boards are more oriented toward business users, so they don't have some of the overclocking features that the Z77 boards would have. If you're not overclocking, and if you're saving money, and if your hardware is compatible, go for it! Otherwise, there are plenty of mATX Z77 boards out there.

Well, According to Wikipedia.......the comsumer boards are over-clockable so that wouldn't include the B boards
... not that i plan on doing it at the moment, but the 2500K has the potential if i want some more juice out of it later.

Ideally looking to spend as little as possible as want to get new GPU and an M4/ other SSD now the prices are more favourable.
