When in the market for a motherboard, most users who have decided on Intel for their processor are left with a big choice, do they go X79 or Z77? Well it comes down really to your main use of the system and more so your budget. Z77 is typically the chip set of choice when it comes to day-to-day computing and gaming, but if you're more like us at eTeknix where gaming is not a thing that you get time for or you generally don't want to do, where the focus is more on sheer power for the likes of video rendering and image editing, then with out a doubt X79 is the way to go.

Of course this doesn't mean that if you're gaming you must go Z77, X79 is still more than capable of giving a large amount of gaming performance, and a number of people chose to go down this path. Those who are into the games will recognise the name 'Fatal1ty' - the tag for world famous and champion gamer Johnathan Wendel. To endorse a product with his name means that we must have something a little special here with some extra features and performance to go with.
