Ideas please
Now my poor old Ivy (Asus P877-V board) is slowly going south I think so I am planning to replace the board and CPU with these
Intel Core i5 6600K (definite)
and either of these
ASUS Z170-AR $259 or ASUS Z170-K $239 or Gigabyte GA-Z170XP-SLI.
I don't intend using the DDR4 just yet as I have some DDR3 @ 2400 I hope will fill in until I can afford the RAM. All my other parts will be compatible I reckon am just wondering about those boards as a choice and I have used both brands in the past with no great issues apart from what I am having now.
I would be prepared to go Haswell if necessary.
Would like to try a bit of OC but really is my general use and main machine
