will a R9 280X and a i5 4670 bottleneck in a Asus B85-PLUS? If so what is the best mother board around £100-150

Also on an unrelated note razer has an amazing givaway.

I don't see any bottlenecking issues with the CPU and video card, so you should be fine.

Definitely not. Motherboard has nothing to do with graphical or compute performance. All difference you see in performance numbers are essentially margin of error.

r1e2x310 · Apr 17, 2014

Great. I assumed it would because it was much cheaper than the rest of my components.

r1e2x310 · Apr 17, 2014

if I want to over-clock I need it upgrade right?

kapitalistas · Apr 17, 2014

important use temperature monitor (when doing overclocking process)software like cpu-z good luck.

HiTechObsessed · Apr 17, 2014

Yes, you would need at least an H87 board. Z87 would be best, though it is possible to tweak clock rates on an H87.

r1e2x310 :

depends on your budget your may wanna use liquid cooling,your need bigger fans for cpu if you dont wanna liquid cooling thats the upgrade you wanna different kind of fan for cpu (if not liquid cooling).
