Not interested in this one GIGABYTE GA-P67A-UD7 too exspensive but other 2 are a choice for me. They say you dont need an exspensive motherboard but i dont want to go too cheap i think £150 tops for me.

looking at what money i have .£150 on a board will be good £60-£100 0n ram and new 2500k cpu bout £170

Surely Asus is the way forward here as have UEFI and Gigabyte don't?

You might be right but other manufacturers are using UEFI as well. Im leaving my opions wide open but yes i would prefer UEFI.

The fastest Ram isnt going to be cheap so i wont change my ram unless i find a very good offer. I really just want to change motherboard and processer at the moment.

I picked up this memory for just over £38 with free delivery which wasnt bad price i suppose but not as quick as the latest memory

Corsair XMS3 4GB (2x2GB) DDR3 PC3-12800C9 1600MHz Dual Channel Kit (CMX4GX3M2A1600C9)

I think I'll go with a P67 then...

I don't need integrated graphics, I know which GPU I am likely to buy and I would like some overclocking capabilities.

Can't wait 4 days now is it to go?

I thought the difference was H supported onboard graphics and P did not?

That is correct.
