Hi Melody,

If possible, I would recommend the newer Z77 based motherboards with the new 3rd generation Core i5/i7 processors.
The X58 is now a few years old.

That said, if these are the choices you have I would recommend the ASUS SABERTOOTH X58

Regards,

Martin

thank you Martin for your recommendation.

unfortunately, my cpu was built with LGA1366 socket and it forces me to buy an older motherboard.
in fact, this asus sabertooth x58 motherboard have usb3 onboard ports that will be useful for next few years.

thank you very much again Martin.

Regards, God Bless...
