Hi, I am making a gaming rig, which i want to overclock to 4ghz on stock voltage ( or at least close to that ) on a intel i5 2500k with a amd raedon hd 7870 1000mhz/4.8ghz 2gb. I will have a noctua nh d 14 cooler. I need help making a good motherboard ; for the price limit of 100$ to 130$. I want this computer to last me at least 4 - 6 years. ( also do you think the overclock on stock voltage to 4ghz is possible? ) Please respond and help me out, and preferably motherboards needed from ncix.ca ( where im buying my rig)

Kind Regards,
Steve

You'll need a good power supply to overclock; you don't have to spend a fortune on the motherboard to get good performance, just the power supply and cpu heatsink

Power supply: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...
Motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E168...

I also use biostar boards. Read the newegg reviews and check out some other z77 boards. You may also prefer an atx board. I prefer micro atx.
