I7 -4790k motherboard

INF1LTR4T0R · Sep 13, 2016

Looking to upgrade to Devils Canyon from fx 8370 because that cpu is starting to show its age. Was wondering what MB I can get for 4790k. Asus is out of the z97 game and newegg still has z97 pro gamer available. Was wondering what you guys think I should consider. Not looking to spend more $150 on MB. Has to be 2 way sli ready for dual 970 cards. I heard some bad things about msi so i'm real iffy about them.

When I was replacing my dead GIGABYTE GA-Z97X-UD5H-BK BLACK EDITION motherboard, several months ago, I had ordered and received an ASUS Z97-A/USB 3.1 motherboard. When I received the ASUS Z97-A/USB 3.1 it wouldn't go past the CPU check when I tested it with two different i7-4790K CPUs. I was able to return that motherboard back to my vendor and received a full refund.

I ended up purchasing two ASUS Z97-PRO GAMER motherboards that both work absolutely fine.

Looking at published return rates due to failure stats, for both of those ASUS motherboard models, it seems to support my experience.

Thanks guys. Purchased z97 Pro Gamer MB, i7 4790k, and h100i v2. Now the hard part converting from AMD to Intel on Windows 10 Pro

A clean install of Windows 10 Pro should be done.

from my understanding, microsoft made it easier when going to a new mb. it's all done through the OS, just have to tell microsoft that it's the same computer on the list of registered pcs.

didn't have to do a clean install. did end up having to shell out $200 for a new windows 10 key though. too big of a hardware change.
