I'm building a decent computer to game on. Here's what I'm looking at:

Intel Core i7 2600K
EVGA 560 Ti
16GB DDR3
WD 1.5 TB Black
Antec 900 W PS
Antec DF-85
Antec Processor cooler

Im on a budget too, would I notice a big difference from the $139 mobo compared to the one that's almost $100 more? Any info would be appreciated seeing as Im going to Microcenter tomorrow and might possibly pick up one. Like what are the noticeable difference to make them cost so differently is basically what Im asking. Thank you again.

I'd also like to hear what you guys think of the ASRock boards. TBH i haven't heard of them until a week or so ago...Been so long since I've kept up with technology.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813157293 is a nice cheaper option.

Features wise, the Asrock Extreme4 is close to the vanilla -V. Same power phases (8) and ports (extreme has an eSATA and is $70 cheaper). The LX has 6 phase and the Pro has double that. They say Ivy won't need as much, but the more phases the better power you can get to o/c. Right now i'm leaning on the Asrock because it so cheap. (They are a a spinoff company of Asus to make more budget motherboards but has been targeting enthusiast for some time).

What he said.
No LX cuz less phase for OC.

The asrock extreme 4 went down another $5. Almost want to just get it, but they might have a combo when ivy shows up. Save the $ from the mobo and use it for better vid card or monitor.
