Hi guys,

Whats a decent mobo, ram and cooler for the Intel Core i7 4930K, I want to get a good overclock. Price doesnt matter to much but nothing ridiculous.

Cheers!

EDIT : Also got an antec 300 case, do i need a bigger case?, if yes please spec! :)

Total : £441.56 (includes shipping : £8.00).



Ive used this board with a 3930K and can do 4.7GHz stable, the cooler will fit with the tall RAM or if you can fit a H100i or H110 in your case then even better:)

Remember that you may require a Sandybridge-E CPU to flash the BIOS in order to get your Ivybridge-E CPU to work with that board :)
 
Depends on the age of the board, if it was manufactured more recently then it may have a newer BIOS on it that supports IB-E out of the box.

To do the BIOS update (if needed) requires a SB-E CPU or places may offer this service.

Okay, thanks, any other suggestion of a board that will work out of the box?
