WHAT MOBO SHOULD I BUY

Hi Guys and Gurus,

My mobo just died and again i am back looking at pricelists and im just flooded with the abundance of mobos for sale.

I am intending to Purchase a:
i7-3770 CPU
with 16GB of Ram
and a MOBO.

Reuse:
GTX 580 GPU
SB Titanium HD
SSD and Hdds
Casing

My PC is utilitarian .. my parents use for angry birds and siblings for MS Office and Net .. and i use for torrent, running Virtual Machines, Movies, Games and ...

So im kinda confused which chipset and mobo to get Z77, H77 or B75 ..

Really need some views on good mobos pls and dont wanna spend so much ..

Thanks all.

H77 series and a i5-3470 is enough for your usage . 8gb ram is enough.

If TS wanna use PC for VMs, might as well keep using the existing 2600K (8 threads vs 4 threads). Get Z77 (if wanna OC) or just get H77 (if no want OC).

I can get any H77 mobo like (P8H77-M PRO) and slip in my current i7 2600K coz its same socket right?
