In the market for a motherboard again


Recommended Posts

I've narrowed it down to these two, But they seem to offer almost the exact same performance/features, i can't seem to find any real differences. Which one do you think i should go with? I have a feeling the striker just has a jacked up price because its dubbed as "The ultimate gaming motherboard" which isn't any real reason to pay another 120 dollars.

nevermind, i decided to go for the cheaper one, this seems to be a popular question on teh internets and heres pretty much what my research found -

 

The only differences between the two boards (they are even on the same PCB) is that the less expensive one has some missing transistors (AKA its not all solid state anymore) and the heatpipes are a little different. But performance is in fact exactly the same (Give or take 1-3FPS in a game, but that doesnt really count to me)

Do you always answered your own questions? Anyway I agree the less expensive is actually better then the other. The other one is not justified is the extra cost. You get just almost the same for the lesser price.
