Hi I was wondering if anyone has any advice on which overclocked motherboard bundle is best for me?

I'm looking at an i7 (the 4.2 overclock is fine) and at least 16gb ram.

I use the machine for gaming but my main priority is photoshop and rendering out of 3dsmax etc...

any advice on which motherboard is best and what cpu cooler i should go for? Also if I wanted to upgrade to 32gb ram in the future would i have any problems?

Many Thanks!
 
thanks for the replys, I have built a PC before but I don't really want the hassle and I am no overclocking expert so I'm happy to pay a little extra for someone to set up the bios and so on for me.

I'm happy with the overclock being at 4.2 tbh, the most important thing is that the PC is totally stable and reliable for a good few years without having to mess with stuff too much

Ideally my budget is about £500 - I was thinking of this:

YOUR BASKET
1 x ReFlex Asus Z87 - Intel Core i5 4670K @ 4.2GHz Configurable Gaming Bundle £126.01
- 1 x Alpenföhn K2 Mount Doom CPU Cooler £49.99
- 1 x TeamGroup Vulcan GOLD 16GB (2x8GB) DDR3 PC3-17100C11 2133MHz Dual Channel Kit (TLYD316G2133HC11ADC01) £129.95
- 1 x Intel Core i7-4770K 3.50GHz (Haswell) Socket LGA1150 Processor - OEM £239.99
- 1 x Standard Build Laptops - Approximately 3 to 5 working days £0.00
Total : £555.54 (includes shipping : £8.00).

 
thanks Fulax, so will the stock cooler (Prolimatech 48 Basic CPU Cooler - 92mm) be fine? I'm happy to spend a few quid extra on the mount doom if that will make it more reliable. I have an antec 1200 case so I think pretty much anything will fit in it?
