Hi guys

I have recently picked up a decent deal on an I5-3470 office build. I have a gtx 650 graphics card and I would like to build a tricked out machine with what I have with very little expense which is basically the goal.

I would like to know if any one knows of a decent motherboards, I could get which would allow a novice to tinker around with overclocking but would also improve the builds performance should i not choose to overclock the build, untill i can put in a good cooling system.

thanks guys.

To overclock you need a K series cpu, and yes I don't recommend overclocking on stock cooling.

^Like he said you need a K series CPU, I would get an i5 3570k.

A good budget motherboard for overclocking would be an ASRock Extreme 4 Z77.

A good budget CPU cooler would be a CM Hyper 212 EVO or a Corsair H100i if you want water cooling and are willing to spend more.
