Which of these motherboards is best?

[BurningSkyline]

Going In a lan party build for a friend. I'm basically looking for the best motherboard for the price. Will be mounted inside a NZXT Vulcan, and the processor will be an Athlon II 640.

Foxconn A88GM Deluxe

Foxconn A88GMX

ASUS M4A88TD-M/USB3

GIGABYTE GA-880GMA-UD2H

Feel free to suggest other boards. I'm not the best at picking motherboards out.

I'm personally a Gigabyte fan, so I'd go with that one.

I'm looking for opinions based mostly on the actual board, not personal preferences.

The Gigabyte.

Unless you need onboard video, I would get one of these.

It has to be mATX.

Also, I do not feel the need to make another topic so which of these RAM sets would be best?

^ Okay, but can you explain why I should get the Gigabyte board for my friends build?

 

[voyagerfan99]

Gigabyte > Asus

Gigabyte > Asus

That sounds like a completely biased opinion.

The Gigabyte has 2oz. copper PCB/Low RDS(on) Mosfets and a Dual Bios.

If you want a better board with onboard video you need to jump up to something like this.

Although there is no heatsink over the power phases it should be fine.

Anyways, go back and look at post #5 please.


Not to sound like an ass, or anything.

So for something with a Single Slot 5770 or Single slot GTS 450 if I can find one, the gigabyte is my best choice?
