hello guys,

Am building a core i7 6700k based mini itx pc, i am not sure which motherboard will be ideal for the setup. I do not want to break the bank for the motherboard, i know it would be stretching it if i say i would prefer on board wifi :lol: but as long as its a reasonable price.

components so far

intel core i7 6700k
mini itx mobo - preferably with on board wifi
evga gtx970 ftw
16gb ddr4 ram
250gb samsung evo 850 ssd and 2tb seagate hdd
corsair h60 cooler
cougar 850 watt psu
coolermaster elite 130 casing

thanks!!

That PSU is way overkill, and probably not very high quality. I'd go with something 450-600W from tier 1 or 2 here: http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-2547993/psu-tier-list.html

If you're planning on OCing significantly, I'd get one of these - most of the cheaper ones don't look like the VRMs hold up to much.

If not, I'd grab this and a cheaper CPU - GPU performance is far more important for gaming. You may also want to wait for the new GPUs.
