The most popular are probably whatever the default is in each config. Just a guess.

Picking a mobo is probably the most confusing for most. Generally, just the default mobo is the best for features vs price. The more expensive boards are for higher overclocking, m.2 support, built in wifi, etc., depending what a customer wants.

No easy answer.

Hi jim,

If you want the best bang for the buck the Asus Z170-Pro Gamer is a good choice.

If you want more features then the Asus Z170-Hero.

If you want built in WiFi then the Asus Z170-Deluxe.

If you want a serious OC board then take a look at the MSI Z170A XPower Gaming Titanium. This features extra power for the CPU and the GPUs for overclocking. Comes with duel bios and set and forget OC. Not a cheap board and has to be special ordered by DS. Special order means more cost.

The higher priced boards usually have better OC options. I suggest you visit this site and compare the boards you are interested in. It gives you a side by side comparison.
