Go to solution Solved by Megazero,

I'm trying to build a computer using these parts:

 

Case: Corsair Carbide Series SPEC-01

GPU: Asus GTX780-DC2OC-3GD5

CPU: Intel i7 4770k

PSU: Fractal Design Tesla R2 650W

RAM: Kingston HyperX Fury 8gb 1600mhz

HDD: Seagate Barracuda 2TB

 

So my budget is 130€/160dollars.

I am thinking about Asus Z97-K .

How about MSI z97 G45 Gaming Mobo :P And while you at that dont get the 4770k, either get a i5 4690k or i7 4790k
