    I have a budget of around £130 to spend on a Motherboard as part of my first ever build. However I am stuck on which motherboard to choose. It is between the P67 Chipset or Z68 Chipset, the latter I am drawn towards (more future-proof).
    But which Z68 motherboard should I get?



    Thanks
    Tomo

    For that money I'd go for an Asus MAXIMUS IV GENE-Z. As long as you don't need expansion card and simply go with a single graphics card then the GENE-Z is top dog. In my opinion the slots are too close to consider SLI or Crossfire and any other expansion would block the GPU cooling.
