Hi guys, I would like to know if this mobo is good for an i7 4790k. My plans to oc are very mild maybe 4.4 or 4.5 so take that into account.


Thanks in advance.
 
Solution
That motherboard is a great pair-up for the 4790k, it is made for heavy usage and for overclocking, so you don't need to worry about that.

Thanks for the quick response, I had a little doubt about this one since it is the "cheap" version of the mark 1.

Not exactly cheap at £150, but yeah. It should be a good board, especially with overclocking.

The mobo is one of the worst Ive ever seen, I made a mistake with a voltage later on and overclocked failed and I wasnt able to access bios never again. USB flashback is not working, and all the utilities from asus dont work. This is a hell of an experience, should never have gone away from gigabyte :(
