I have a great offer from a friend for a 2700K which runs on the LGA1155 socket to include in a new build. The downside however is there are few to none available new LGA1155 motherboards that would allow for overclocking, leaving me with refurbished and used options.
What are folks experiences with refurbished and used motherboards? For instance, Zake.com is a refurbisher that sells a lot of refurb LGA1155 mobo through Newegg.
Any tips or things to keep of note as I try to see what mobo best fits my needs?
