Looking for a good MOBO for i5 6600k under 130$

Benthrox · Jun 28, 2016

I'm going to get a new PC and the i5 6600k just catched my attention. I want a build for decent overclocking and that includes 16Gb Ram and the AMD RX480. Also, about the MOBO i don't care if it's ATX o Micro ATX i just want decent overclocking for a good price.

Right now i have planned:
-i5 6600K
-Cryorig H7
-Seagate Barracuda 2TB
-PNY 16Gb (2x8) 2400Mhz
-AMD RX480

Also if you don't like this build you can recommend me another one that is between 700-800$.

Both builds are nice, but I think if you wait a little bit until someone has a good sale on a Z170 board, you'll be able to get a bit more for your money. It seems like we are in a dry spell right now.

Link for the case and the MB:

Sign up for promo code for the case or you can try mine. If you want that MB, I would try to order ASAP as the shipping option frequently disappears quickly. You may want to wait on the RX 480 even if you find it until the PCIe power consumption controversy is settled. Add an SSD when you get a chance.
