These are not motherboards, these are chipsets. The same chipset is available on numerous boards with varying prices. Get Gigabyte B85M DH3.

OK seriously last time m askin

most prob i ll stretch to H97 mD3H BUT IF

i go for GIGABYTE GA-H81M-Gaming 3 OR GA-H81M-D3H instead oF H97 ...... would it make a difference in gaming considering

GIGABYTE Releases GA-H81M-Gaming 3 Motherboard - Tech4Gamers

1) No need for over clocking ,no extra ports,M2 etc
2) just need 4th gen processor n NVIDIA gts 450 support (i will upgrade soon ) ,8gb ddr3 ram

FOR ONLY 1 YEAR OF GAMING

all the stuff in pt2(above) is covered by H81 M

SO ??

The H81 board will be more than enough for your needs.

wait wait wait

you havent purchased the i3 right? If yes then dont. Get fx6300+ga 78lmt usb3. It'll be better for gaming.

whyyyy

coz amd ka after sales ,service centre etc i guess not tht good (i ve heard mostly)

even @ asus service centre @ saki naka they told me... amd creates more problems .

n never tried amd !!

Why go for FX 6300 ? because you get 6 physical cores as opposed to i3's 2..
Every single game that has released recently, has full multi core support, the difference in performance will be noticeable at one point of time..
And regarding the after sales service, its a hoax what the local people will tell u.. there is no such thing as AMD is bad or Intel is better, it all comes down to benchmarks and performance..
quality of after sales service is dependent on the location as well as availability of the product, how exactly do you know that Intel's service is better in any way ? you dont, so it's better to go for a product that is more value for money..
Now as for the matter at hand, the AMD processor I suggested has one big downside.. its OLD very OLD.. and it's cpu slot (AM3+) has no future processor releases.. But despite the shortcomings, a 6 core physical core processor that is overclockable reks a 2 core processor in multithreaded tasks/games..
Also, it has no iGPU, meaning if ur GPU goes kaput , your PC becomes a brick
The processor is certainly VFM and gives better performance in all multithreaded applications compared to an i3.. However, i3 4150 is also a safe choice, i and [MENTION=140941]harshilsharma63[/MENTION] both own an i3 and I can certainly say, its a very capable processor..

Nothing like that. Local shopkeepers know nothing. FX 6300 is good CPU. Get it if you are also getting a graphic card. As for the PC becoming a brick on the event of GPU going kaput, you can get old graphic cards for as low as 500 bucks on OLX as a temporary card. Finally, yeah i3 is a hell of a processor. I can run all DX10 games on 2nd gen i3 so 4th gen is obviously gonna be more powerful. But still, FX 6300 makes a good choice for gaming.

my expression is the same as ur profile pic

thnx 1st .... i think i ll go for i3 4160 and GIGABYTE H97 M D3H ....

I3 will i guess help with their hyper threading ... will play mostly games till 2014 till i upg my gts 450 !!

now any RAM suggestion with this will be good

ty!!

Go with Kingston HyperX or Corsair Vengeance or Gskill Ripjaws, depeding upon your budget
Here's an ebay seller that is selling HyperX at cheap..
Other cheaper alternatives : Corsair Valueselect ...
Avoid : Transcend/Kingston valueRam/Adata Ram.. there are plenty of fakes and duplicates for these products...
