where you find that lobang one? LOL!

 

[royfrosty]

All on Tradepacs price list.

Really give other mobo a try than Asus.

$368 still have 4570.

 

[lamtheboy]

Haha HWZ tradepac price list, 4670 only a tad more expensive at 394

 

[MevolutionX]

why Asus not good? ._.

 

[lamtheboy]

why Asus not good? ._.

It's good! quality product but quality pricing
People around here usually recommend Asrock pro4 for non OC if you are on a slightly lower budget and pair with a better CPU if possible
and MSI G series board for OC

 

[tony_ong]

why Asus not good? ._.

its a good brand. but the price is higher too.

when i was buying my rig i was also thinking of getting asus board. but end up with asrock cause cheaper.

this MB so far so good for me.

 

[royfrosty]

It is not say no good. It is more of a premium pricing you pay for. Branding.

Other mobos are catching up and shining in the market right now. And the price wise it is expensive to get an Asus product if you have a tight budget to meet.

Of cause if you have $4k to spare then everything can build from Asus.

A H board from Asus and a H board from Asrock. At the price point for Asrock you get a better CPU.

And you top up $6 more you can get a Z87 mobo with 4570 from MSI.

Hello! Posted about how to build a gaming rig last month and all the helpful bros here taught me a lot. Just wanna show all of you the results after a month. Haha! This total setup cost me ~$680 with a mixture of used parts (still under warranty). The setup is about 80% completed already. Left CPU cooling, better ram & more case fans. LOL!

Those that have a tight budget but wanna build a good gaming PC & don't mind using some used part, you can really save quite a bit if cash!
