So..I purchased the following..
H170 Pro Gaming MB
i7 6700k 4ghz CPU
Heatsink..(I cant remember the brand but was a good one for $90.00)
Evga Gtx 1060 SSC GPU
1 250gb Samsung SSD
1 1tb Samsung SSD
2x 8gb Ripjaw VSeries 3k Ram
Corsair 750w psu
All in a Corsair 450d Case
.. I realized how badly Im bottlenecking with that motherboard..
From my understanding.. The unlocked processor is being bottlenecked because I cant overclock?
At the same time.. The the Ram is bottlenecked down to 2133? Its 3xxx Ram..but the motherboard wont allow more?
Okok.. So I have everythinf installed on this computer..including registered copy of windows 10 etc etc..
Newegg has a 50$ rebate on one of their z170s.. I used my pc for games..movies and emulating games as well..is it worth selling the h170 pro and going to a z170? Considering I do emulation and games. Would .5 ghz be worth all the trouble? (Would have to purchase another key for windows 10 as well.
If yes..what motherboard should I try to get that will "Unlock" this computers potential?
