5 features you will miss on motherboards less than $200
These are must-haves that I will always want on a motherboard
I hate overspending on motherboards as much as the other guy, but some features are just too useful to pass up. These days, $150 motherboards come with the bare minimum, lacking adequate VRMs and I/O. Once you jump to the sub-$200 segment (mostly $179–$189 boards), things change for the better as you also get BIOS flashback and 2.5G LAN, but you're still not quite there.
