<![CDATA[Three H87 motherboards, which one?]]>Hello everyone

I intend to change my computer
I will not overclock (I don't know how to do it)
I think it's balanced to choose the H87 chipset, between office, video and gamer. A middle term
It will be for browsing, office, video, music and maybe someday I will play, but this last thing is not the most important
I am going to install an i5, I don't know exactly which one, maybe a 4670
I have in mind for the ATX format

MSI H87-G43
ASUS H87 PLUS
GigaByte GA-H87-HD3

Greetings

in other forums I read that maybe better a single module of 8GB because of the temperature issue

Maybe in those forums they are experts in gardening because there is no way to grasp that statement :facepalm:

Buy 2x4GB or 2x8GB DDR3 1600 (PC3_12800) CL9 and better versions that are called "Low Voltage" that need a reasonable voltage (1,50/1,55V).

Salu2!

I already say that I won't do OC, so the H87 chip is more than enough for me
I don't know if it's a bit of an abuse in the thread, but I would like to fine-tune the issue a bit more and ask what memories would be good for it
I have thought about 2x4GB 1600Mhz to make dual channel, however in other forums I read that maybe a single 8GB module is better because of the temperature issue
If we take into account that I am not going to squeeze the machine to its capacity, we are talking about an i5 4670, I think I will be more than enough for what I usually move
I don't want to spend more than strictly necessary. That is to say, those gadgets of some series with endings like Hyper X, Super Blue, Maxi, etc... or similar names, I think it's practically just changing the name and the color of the chip
I think that any reliable brand is already reliable, or not?
How about this for 60€?
One module: G.Skill 8GB DDR3-1600MHz Latencias CL11 11-11-28
That dual channel for 82€
Two modules: Corsair XMS3, 8GB(2 x 4GB), DDR3-1600Mhz Latencias: CL11 11-11-30

Between the Gigabyte and the MSI you put, I think I would opt for the MSI :sisi:, and it seems that I will have to take that brand into account again ?

Regarding cooling, it's almost better to leave the stock one until you can buy a decent heatsink (a Thermalright True Spirit or better), so as not to spend twice.

Salu2!

I don't know how, maybe they have advanced in technology and/or quality, but... a few years ago nobody wanted ASRock
Maybe I'm a little outdated with what's on the market today
Recommend me that brand and which model would be the equivalent, maybe:
H87 Pro4.......................... 80€
Fatal1ty H87 Performance..... 90€
And so that it has good cooling, I don't know how you see/see

Best regards!
