The 700 series implementation of SATA 6GB/s is via crude non native Marvell Controller so i would either hit Asrock 870Extreme3 or Gigabyte 890X with combo ^^

the cpu + gpu i sayd i think its better.... cause cpu its not very important in gaming... u can get 4 cores with that cpu and u have a 940 for free... and the gpu its just better

ohh also the 555 overclos very easily.. thats wii i suggested that, but wuth 955 and 5840 u will be fine
