So What is the best motherboard to overclock the pentium? Once you choose a motherboard, what is the max/ideal overclock i can get out of it? I want to overclock so as to not bottleneck my gpu. I have not bought anything yet, it is for a future build. My budget for the motherboard would be about $120 Max!
Here is the Parts list:
CPU: Pentium g3258
Cooler: Seidon 120M
Motherboard choice (currently): Gigabyte GA-Z97N
GPU: XFX R9 280x
Case: Bitfenix
Power: Corsair 550cx
Thanks for the Help! :D

The whole point of a G3258 build is that you can get a $50 motherboard and still overclock on it. For the price of a G3258 and a $120 mobo you can get a Core i3 and H97 board.
