Asus P8Z77-M Pro vs GA-Z77-DS3H

Now that mountain lion is out...Which one do you guys recommend for my i5 3570k with Gtx 550 ti?

Im also open to any other motherboard up to $200 dollars

I personally prefer the Asus board (who'd a thunk it), but you'll need a modded bios to get sleep working. There's nothing wrong with the GA-Z77-DS3H and there's a lot of people here using it so you'll find a lot of help and support. I like building with mATX boards and Gigabyte seems to have "screwed the pooch" on the mATX boards by using VIA audio, so for me it's a no-brainer... Luck with either.

thank you...i have decided to stick with gigabyte since its recommended by most ...i will be purchasing a used GA-Z77X-UD5H because of the better reviews over z77-ds3h
