Hello.

I am planning to buy a new system to be able to play Tom clancy's The Division on 1080p Ultra settings when it comes out.

Case: NZXT Phantom 530
CPU: Intel Core i7 4770k
MOBO:
CPU Cooler:Be quiet Dark Rock 2
VGA:
RAM: Corsair Vengeance 8 GB 1600 Mhz CL9

I need help choosing a Motherboard and a Video card.

My Budget for a VGA is around 750 USD, for motherboard i was looking at the Intel DZ87KLT75K.
But if anyone can suggest a better MOBO at this price range or even lower i would appreciate it.
What VGA should i buy for ultra settings 1080p?Can anyone predict the system requirements?

Thanks.

MSI GPUs work a little bit better with MSI motherboards, mainly due to driver support, but you are always welcome to go and check out any of the gaming Z87 motherboards. Intel boards are generally poor overclockers.
Here are the best of best mobos in diff price range. Go for any one of them which suits your budget.
1) Asus Z87-K ($110)
2) MSI Z87 G-45 ($160)
3) Asus Maximus VI Hero ($200)
4) MSI Z87 X Power ($400)

MSI Z87 Power Max is yet another almighty board made by MSI, exclusively for overclocking. This mobo sports The Military Class IV components and if your budget allows it, that's a definite thumbs up !

And what do you think about the Intel DZ87KLT-75K?
I mostly like it because the looks of it.It looks pretty good in the NZXT Phantom 530 in my opinion.
Do the MSI/Asus ones perform better or just have a better price?
