Definitely a Haswell chipset should be opted if your budget is 15k.
You can go for ASUS Z87-A, Gigabyte Z87x D3H or Biostar Z87x 3D motherboards can be considered, as all are ranging between 12k-15k and are now available in the market in India. The benefit of opting for Haswell supporting motherboard will be that in case in future you want to upgrade, you'll be future ready.
You mean his current Second generation i5 proccy can be used on Haswell supported motherboard ?
Haswell means Intel 4th generation Core i5 and i7 processor series. here techsavvy123 has mentioned he has 2nd gen CPU. I dont think Z87 series of mobos having socket type 1150 from either of asus, gigabyte or biostar can be used in this case.Quote:

Thats embarrassing now. :( should have read techsavvy123's post in more detail and not just the thread name.Quote:

ASRock Fatal1ty Z77 Professional is the best under 15k.
I just pruchased Biostar motherboard , which is perfect.
Which gaming motherboard of Biostar?Can you explain?
Hi Yeshu..If u can tell the configuration of the Biostar Motherboard you have used would be of help!!!
Since i didnt receive any response was wondering if i should suggest a friend for Biostar Gaming motherboard?I researched and saw the latest edition is pretty efficient.
hey
why dont you opt for the latets Z97 mobos..budget brands include Biostar and others..maybe cost you under 10K for the high end ones..
I'm also a game lover but 15K rupees is quite less for a better gaming experience you should expense atleast 20/25K rupees.
Are you even reading it, he is asking for motherboard only suggestion and at 15K he can get quite a punch.Quote:
