Replace my I7 3770k

JediMa · Jul 17, 2016

I wasn't really planning to spend anything bout cpu and mainboard but considering few issues i'm having lately, i 'd like to know what could i buy without spending too much, to replace my I7 3770k and a decent mainboard to install it

I was just considering to replace only the bugged mainboard but it seems impossible in italy to buy a z77 LGA 1155 and so,,

thank you guys

Won't be cheap to upgrade , what budget are you working with?

I agree 1155 is pretty much dead , when looking for replacements.

Well it's complicated cause I wasnt planning any update in this moment but I was waiting for the right time (good budget) to do it ...
SO my budget is extremely limited that's why i'd say the less the better. that means if you can kindly tell me what's the chepest combination mobo-cpu I will try to work on the budget to get it.. At the moment i'm totally clueless so i really don't have any idea bout how much i should spend

Is a I5-6600K + a good option? and if yes with what mainboard?

For the moment can I go on to use my DDR 3 1600 on that mainboard? So to have the chance to buy the 2400 later?

Dark Lord of Tech · Jul 17, 2016

Yes it supports it.

- Supports DDR3/DDR3L 1866(OC)/1600/1333/1066 non-ECC, un-buffered memory

The board supports up to 1866 , stick with 1600 , won't be much of a difference.

Well I will try to wait .. hoping that mobo will stop to bother in order to buy the right stuff< i5 6500 with a good mainboard and ddr4 memory .. so fingers crossed

Be patient , will be worth it.
