just wanna check . I seen a few thread and they recommend
MSI B85 G43 Gaming for mobo rather than Asrock B85M Pro 4 . what's the difference between this 2 board in terms of age , function . is the MSI a newer board ?

Both arrive the same timing. Asrock has support for older PCI component. If you have an old PCI items to b used then Asrock is for you.

Asrock is using 3 way pin for fans while MSI using a mixture of 3-4 pins for fan.

If both don't look enticing enough then choose the mobo service centre nearer to you.
