ASUS P8Z77-V Pro

Personally, I would spend $10 more for the LK model to get another PCIe 3.0 lane for SLI capability, better on-board audio (chipset & ports), two additional USB 3.0 ports, an EPU switch for reduced power consumption, and a DisplayPort for the iGPU...

ASUS P8Z77-V Pro

That's great. I prefer purchasing mobos from Amazon for that very reason. They have impeccable customer service when it comes to product returns. Newegg? Not so much.

Wow! Two RMAs, and you're gonna give it another try? That shows real dedication on your part and is a strong testament to the attractive feature set on this board.

maximus v extream

You're welcome. If you look closely at the photos of the Maximus V Extreme ("EATX" form factor) and compare it to the photos of the P8Z77-V Deluxe (ATX form factor, 12.0" x 9.6"), you will notice that the mounting hole pattern and spacing for the Extreme is the same as that used on the Deluxe's...

Weird FPS Stuttering: Best way to test Mobo or PSU

I can't help you with your motherboard troubleshooting, but I might be able to help with GTA IV. Since your graphics card has 2GB of VRAM, you may be an unwitting victim of the infamous video memory bug in the PC version of the game. Try using the following command line parameters in GTA IV...

asus republic of gamers motherboards

Ian Cutress, Anandtech's Senior Editor - Motherboards, recently wrote an excellent in-depth article on the ROG brand, so I would encourage you to read that for a detailed analysis. JJ at Asus also gives a detailed overview of each ROG board on Asus' YouTube channel, so you should look those up...

ASUS P8Z77-V Pro

The "Dash V" (i.e., Video) Pro is a very nice board with a decent feature set, positioned in the upper middle tier of Asus' mainstream motherboards. I have looked at this board a lot, so I can give you a pretty thorough run-down of what aspects I like about it. First, Asus has a very good...

Motherboards

Of all components in a PC, the motherboard is probably the most central, so you are wise to start there, but you first need to determine how you plan to use your computer. Read the following link, and then come back with more specific questions once you know what features interest you...

Can you recommend a $150-$200 Z77 motherboard to me?

No, because quality is not a simple binary measure of whether something works (1) or it doesn't (0). You can't argue that a Lamborghini Aventador is "just a car" and then attempt to measure it's quality based upon criteria for a daily driver. The Nichicon "God-like" capacitors aren't just...

Can you recommend a $150-$200 Z77 motherboard to me?

But cheaper motherboards ARE typically made of cheaper parts. Take Asus, for example... one of your preferred motherboard manufacturers. Compare the following two Z77 motherboards: 1) Asus ROG Maximus V Formula, an enthusiast-class, Republic Of Gamers "segment" board in the Asus product...

Can you recommend a $150-$200 Z77 motherboard to me?

Actually, just to play devil's advocate, $100 is literally twice as much as you "need" to spend to get a brand new motherboard that works. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...G&PageSize=100 So why are you spending $50+ more than you need to? :confused: Oh, I see. Because you "want" the...

Can you recommend a $150-$200 Z77 motherboard to me?

There are several different ways to measure "top" motherboard manufacturers. For example, the "top" three Intel motherboard manufacturers in terms of product SKUs available on NewEgg are: (1) Asus - 89 SKUs, (2) ASRock - 54 SKUs, and (3) Gigabyte - 36 SKUs...

Actually, what that image states is: "Intel 22nm and 2nd Gen Core CPUs". That's a little confusing, because the 22nm die shrink is 3rd Gen (Ivy Bridge), and the 32nm die shrink is 2nd Gen (Sandy Bridge).
