Looking for a New Board/Ram to Replace a HP Odense Board

My Case is a Nzxt 230

Processor on the HP is a i7-6700

Is that a non k series 6700? Will you ever get a k series cpu to go in it? If not then a H110/H170/B150 board will do. Is there any features in particular you need from the board?

the only feature I need is the ability to remove the HP bios

and maybe 3/4 usb 3 ports

that is all I need and the processor is the Non k version and I wont get a k Series either

Cheap and cheerful but limited to DDR4 2133mhz

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Gigabyte H110M-S2H Intel H110 (Socket 1151) DDR4 Micro ATX Motherboard= £46.99

Total: £56.89
(includes shipping: £9.90)

More expensive but more USB ports, no ram speed restrictions plus more options for upgrading should you change your mind.

My basket at Overclockers UK:

1 x Asus Z170-P Intel Z170 (Socket 1151) DDR4 ATX Motherboard= £94.99

Total: £105.49
(includes shipping: £10.50)

Yes. Or there's also the Gigabyte GA-Z170-HD3P.

I believe they are working on the Asus motherboard warranty thing to bring it in line with the gpu's. Personally I have never had one fail or any problems with Asus boards and my last 4-5 boards have all been Asus.

ok thanks pastymuncher
