Hi guys!

Would like to ask for opinions/recommendations for Motherboard + CPU.

I have a few in consideration:

1) Asus Prime B360M-A
2) MSI B360 Gaming Artic
3) Gigabyte B360M Aorus Gaming 3


My Budget is around $500, and a i5 processor.

Also would like to know difference between different brands of motherboards like ASUS vs GIGABYTE vs MSI.

Thanks in advance! :s12:

Msi is most value for money and check the right boxes for the right price.

Asus has good bios but no heatsink on vrm is not very good as you're driving a 6 core cpu. Asus also have higher pricing compared to other brands offering too.

No gigabyte to me as they usually run higher core voltage and have voltage spikes for their Motherboards.
