00:00Alright, so you want to get into that X99 LGA 2011-3 budget madness without overpaying?
00:06I already went through buyer ratings and feedback so you don't have to.
00:10These are the actual top 5 boards that keep showing up in budget builds, and honestly,
00:15some are barely over 40 bucks. Let's get into it.
00:20First up is the ZUZ X99W bundle, and at $46, it's the absolute cheapest way in.
00:26It pairs with the 12-core Xeon E5-2650v4 so you've got plenty of threads for your first build.
00:334.8 stars and nearly 5,000 sold, so real people have already tested it.
00:38If you want maximum fun for minimum money, start here.
00:42Next is the SOIO X99 combo at about 49 bucks.
00:47This one actually includes a 14-core E5-2680v4 and 16 gigs of DDR4ACC memory right in the kit.
00:55That's a massive upgrade for such a tiny price.
00:58With 4.8 stars from over 4,000 buyers, it more than earned its spot.
01:03Grab this one if you plan to run loads of stuff at the same time.
01:07Then we have the ZSUS board that ties for the highest rating today at 4.9.
01:13Just over $52 gets you the 12-core E5-2670v3, 16 gigs of RAM at 2133, plus M.2 support.
01:21With more than 4,000 reviews averaging near perfect, it's basically the safest combination you can grab
01:28right now. It's the definition of a reliable cheap combo.
01:32Number 4 is the Machinist PR9H combo.
01:36For $48, you get the same style 12-core plus 16 gigs of ECC memory.
01:42What sets this one apart is the brand trust, Machinist has been doing these budget X99 boards
01:47for years, and their BIOS is way more polished. 4.9 rating, over 4,000 sold, and it's a genuinely
01:54foolproof first-time pick. Last but not least is the Machinist PR9.
02:00At about $50 for the board, it's the smartest move for future-proofing because it supports both
02:09cheap 2670v3 and later drop in a monster 2696v4 without changing motherboards.
02:16With a 4.9 star rating from almost 4,000 buyers, that flexibility wins.
02:21Best upgrade path, no contest.
02:24Okay, that's the list.
02:27I've left links to all 5 of these in the description with current prices, so check them out.
