Socket 1150 mobo choice

[Jonathan T]

Hi
At the risk of covering old ground - I'm planning on getting an 1150 motherboard for my three Scope cards (two Pulsar2 plus Luna), they were all happy together in a Core 2 duo setup but that has come to an end and it is time to move on.
Having read the great info on here I have located an MSI Z97 Gaming 3 and a Gigabyte GA-H97-D3H. Is there a preference for either choice or are they likely to give similar results?
Having made a mistake and bought a secondhand 1155 board I am being more careful now!
Thanks for a great forum.

i think both are pretty safe choices.

nice, i also got that MSI one! only prob im having is my graphics card covering one of the PCI slots heheh ! oh and the graphics card can also cover the Sata conections, making it a bit annoying to plugin new harddrives, rest im quite happy!
