The I5 4570 is a socket 1150 CPU. The Asus P8H77-M is not compatible with it since its 1155 socket. So may as well go for the Gigabyte then.

That Z87-K is MUCH better than the Gigabyte, but should be a lot more too. It would be pointless to get the Z78-K if you do not plan on getting 4670K and overclocking it since that is what the Z87 boards are made for.

Never overclock CPUs or RAM with software.

That Gigabyte board is RIDICULOUSLY expensive.
The Z87-K will overclock just as well.

I meant to check their stability, £91 for the Z87-k £125 for the UD4H + the value in quality komponents and keeping the mobo for future builds well worth the money. Novuake whats your opinion on the UD4H if you think it's overpriced?

Features/quality is similar to boards of much less cost. Like the Asrock Extreme 6.

Turbo is an automatic clock speed increase that Intel I5 or I7 CPUs have. This is not concidered overclocking and is done without any intervention from the user.

ONLY motherboards that have Z87 chipsets( this will usually be found in the name ) adn CPUs that have the "K" at the end can be overclocked.

Every chip is different and it depends on a lot on your cooling and mobo.

Most people get at least 4.4GHz out of theirs with decent aftermarket cooling.
