ASUS P8Z77-V

I will be using this board. Should i get i73770 or i7 3770K. Do you guys think ASUS P8Z77-V will be able to OC the i7 3770K to its full potential? I've read some reviews that this board might not be good for overclocking.

My recommendations: Processor I5 3570K or I7 3770k The I5 is the best well rounded processor on the market currently. The I7 is also great as it still uses the same chip set 1155 but it includes hyperthread if you plan to do any heavy rending then I7 3770k

Hmm, price is not rally my proble. Is the ASUS P8Z77-V not good? I would still want to stick with ASUS. How is it compared with your Gigabyte recomendations in terms of OC performance?
