    you've no choice but to go more expensive.
    this is the next one up that's in stock.

    what kind of overclocks are you hoping to achieve? what cooler do you have?

    please don't give advice when you don't know what you're taking about.

    It's a good thing it is out of stock. Badly designed board. Wish I had gotten a different one now. That one Tea_Bag recommend looks good. At least the boards power socket is in a sensible position

    Chill out, he was just trying to say that the Motherboard has to be Intel, socket 1155 to be exact. You recommended an AMD Am3 board, which wouldn't be compatible. This is just the internet, after all.

    I'm not trying to be a Dick, but you're recommending an AMD board. what if the OP didn't know that, and buys it on your advice.

    And completely irrelevant to the discussion at hand. This is not the first time you've posted wildly incorrectly either. Please check your facts before you wade in with rage and insults! :eek:

    Then why post at all, you suggested an am3 board when he's getting a 1155 processor. Also you suggested a cooler that is highly outdated. Then when someone points out you clearly haven't a clue what your talking about you get agro, I'm guessing you're a troll?
