ok guys im very new at building new computers, and i dont know much about motherboards.

im getting a new core i5 system, everything is fine expect for the motherboard i dont know if this is good quality or not, but it has all the features that i want such as usb 3.0, IEEE 1394a and esata ,with a good price.

im not gonna sli/crosefire or overclock, but here is my question.

i have 5770 4xgb ram with core i5-750, and i like to play games at high quality, my resolution is 1680 x 1050, so if i go with this mobo, am i gonna have any bottleneck from the motherboard itself?

please if yes, explain why, thanks in advance

ok so let me get this right, if im not gonna sli/crosefire then p55 or h55 will do the same performance on core i5-750? even thought h55 is made for i3 and i5 new gen?

if that is so, i will most likely go with h55 because i dont wanna sli/crosefire and i need that new usb 3.0 and esata ports, however i might overclock not now but maybe sometime in the future, can this board overclock very well?

and thanks for the answers, appreciated!

go for USB 3.0 board mate. In few months time, the usb 3.0 devices will be floating around and it'll be like in heaven while copying to those devices (of course when compared to that of usb 2.0).
Jus now glanced through the performance review of usb3.0 vs esata vs usb 2.0

It has this software where you can safety overclocked your CPU call the smart 6
This mother overall is a great buy and super good when it comes down to gaming.

The other features are Auto Green, enegrysaver 2 and raid controller.

Well I tell you this, I've overclock my CPU to 4.0Ghz and running Stable.
using a 18x or 19X multiplier and the SPD for a 18X multiplier you can get every good scores
View my Overclock video on youtube.
I show how to overclock the CPU and Memory
