The Cohhilition

Hi,

I am ordering this motherboard by the end of this week 3/27 . I would like to know if it is a good one? or if I should get an LGA 2011?

I am also getting the following to go with it.

2 (32G total)- Kingston HyperX FURY 16GB Kit (2x8GB) 1866MHz DDR3 CL10 DIMM - Black (HX318C10FBK2/16)

1 - Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO - CPU Cooler with 120mm PWM Fan (RR-212E-20PK-R2)





My current video card is a:

XFX Black Edition Double D R9 290X 1050MHz 4GB DDR5 DP HDMI 2XDVI Graphics Cards R9290XEDBD

lga 2011 is for i7 5820k,5930k & 5960x(& and xeon processors)., that motherboard is really overkill, go with asus z97 hero and get a h100i(if your case supports it, othherwise buy a new case)

you could also lower the ram to 16 gb, you really dont need more unless you are rendering/Streaming + heavy multitask

The 4790k only goes into a 1150 socket. And that is a very high end motherboard.

I know this has been a few days, But i recently bought the z97 motherboard as well as that EXACT processor (Cohh uses same one I do believe). They work AMAZINGLY together!! that 4790K is amazing man. I'd highly highly recommend it for gaming, streaming, or video/audio editing

Im using an Z97-AR for my 4790K and im loving it so far!
