Re: suggest MOBO for i3

Budget 11K for Mobo only or including the components you have mentioned above??

If only for mobo, then my honest suggestion to you is not to spend more than 8K for a mobo for an i3 2100..

ASUS P8H67-V should be best for you

Re: suggest MOBO for i3

Price of i3 2100 has increased to ~6.2k due to rupee depreciation.

Also due you already have a SATA HDD? The new LGA1155 socket mobos lacks IDE ports. SATA HDD prices have sky rocketed due to floods in Thailand.

In your budget only a H61 mobo is possible and I would suggest the Asus P8H61-M PLUS V2 or Gigabyte H61M-S2P-B3 ~ 3.4k

Alive hunter thanks for making it clear that 11k is for all

Asus P8H61-M PLUS V2 is what I have given to many users and works well
