A good motherboard is a good gaming motherboard. If you're building a gaming PC, not much is required of your motherboard. It should have...
Enough PCIe slots for your card(s).
Enough PCIe bandwidth for your card(s) (usually depends on CPU or chipset).
Enough ports to connect your peripherals and drives (does not need to be much for gaming).
If you are going to overclock your CPU, a good enough power delivery to support your OC.
At least one memory slot. 8GB is par for the course for gaming and you only NEED one stick.
And that's about it. I'm being very general because what you will need to look for in a board completely depends on what parts you'll be using.
