    Which mobo

    Finally making the move from my AMD Phenom to Haswell (4670k) and I need a nudge in the right motherboard direction. It's unlikely I'll SLI/crossfire any time soon, but I'll probably OC if I can get a suitable board within budget.

    Not wanting to spend more than ~£100GBP, less if possible unless of course there's a reason I don't know about for putting £150+ into a motherboard, in which case I'll think about speaking nicely to my credit card...

    I'll be buying from amazon(uk) or ebuyer.

    Thanks in advance

    The ASROCK Exteme3 Z87 is a great motherboard for the money.

    I'll admit to knowing almost zilch about them, so I'll take your advice and go with that! Thank you

    I read the title as "Which Hobo" and got excited.

    OT: Toffie's suggestion should work just fine for you. And cheap too!

    Next time I'm in the market for a hobo I'll be sure to post here then!

    Is http://www.amazon.co.uk/MSI-Z87-G45-...NY8XWM0PPGD5K3 worth the extra £20?

    That is a nice motherboard, but you wont see any different in performance between the two.
    Unless your looking for something specific or favour the asthetics of the MSI motherboard then go for it.
