Going by the other components you dont need any of these over priced gamer boards probibly something simple to the point functional boards and at a resonablr price. So it realy depends what you want right now and what you plan to do in the future for example if you only ever plan to have one grapfics card you dont need a mobo with 4 PCI E slots simularly if you only plan to have 2 to 4 Ram slots you dont need a board with 6 or 8 slots. In my case I went with Asus M5A78L-M/USB3 it was realy cheap has good performance and has a good overrclock ability and i run my board with the FX-6100 chip and it was all i needed. So you you could go with a gigabyte durable range board but you would never see any performance advantage where as if you go for a much cheaper Asus board you will not only save money but it will perform on pretty much the same level
