Ok btw can i overclock my Intel Haswell i5-4670K with this board?

 

You'll need Z97 to overclock.

Hold on guys. I think MSI have still overclockability on their h and even b boards.

"MSI says that the new BIOS on the aforementioned motherboards, in conjunction with its OC Genie 4, can automatically overclock the CPU to 4.3GHz. That's a 35 per cent boost "through a single action without any complicated skills and configurations". MSI also advises that a high end air cooling fan should help enthusiasts reach 4.7GHz without so much as a head-scratch. Furthermore the firm's "Guard-Pro safety protections and Military Class 4 components" should help novices avoid any expensive overclocking mistakes."

Yes. As long as your power supply can give it the extra power it needs, you can overclock it in any board that you please.
