Great board at a bargain price

This review is from: GIGABYTE GA-B85M-DS3H-A LGA 1150 Intel B85 HDMI SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 Micro ATX Intel Motherboard
Pros:
I bought one of these with an i3-4170, and 8GB of Corsair Vengeance DDR-3 1600 RAM to build a new desktop for a friend. Her computing needs are minimal, Office, web browsing, and some basic photo editing. I have no doubt this system will serve her well for several years. One thing that has impressed me is the number of adjustable settings in the BIOS. I would not hesitate to buy another and pick up a K type i5 or even i7 processor to replace my aging Sandy Bridge i7-2700K.
Maybe time will change my opinion but as of now this board is a winner for me. If you are in the market for a budget system you can't go wrong using this board.
