What motherboard should I get?

 

ASUS Maximus V FORMULA LGA 1155 Intel Z77 Extended ATX

 

OR

 

 

ASUS MAXIMUS IV EXTREME LGA 1155 Inter P67  ATX

 

 

Also, I was planning on getting the h440 but I can't if I'm getting the e-atx motherboard..

 

sooo what case and motherboard would you go with if you were me?

Unless you're an overclocker the ASUS Maximus V FORMULA looks like a better deal, as it comes woth more features.

"Have you tried turning it off and on again?"

I was planning on overclocking even tho I'm not very familiar with it.

I5-2500k hence the 1155 socket.

Because I already have an I5-2500k and I'm not going to pay just to get a similiar motherboard.

I wouldn't worry about MOBO and Case yet, you should upgrade your i5-2500k first

I made another thread asking if it was worth upgrading to the i5 1150 verision and pretty much everyone said no.

It's worth getting a 4670k or even a i5-4440.
