I'm building a new mini gaming PC, and am looking for a new mini-ITX motherboard in my system

 

I want it to be under £90, and have decent overclocking ability (z87/97 chipset)

 

ATM I have the MSI Z97 AC in mind, but if anyone can find anything cheaper that would be great

 

BTW my build if you want to know: http://uk.pcpartpicker.com/p/Hzf8qs

Perhaps the Z87 Gaming AC would be a better choice.

Spoiler

Is the z87 compatible with the 4690k, because I heard it isn't?

Same socket, but your board might need a BIOS update if I understand it correctly.

The year is 20XX. Everyone plays Fox at TAS levels of perfection. Because of this, the winner of a match depends solely on port priority. The RPS metagame has evolved to ridiculous levels due to it being the only remaining factor to decide matches.

Only Abate, Axe, and Wobbles can save us.

How do you do that?

I've never done it, but from what I understand you'll need a cpu that will work with the MOBO without the update and do....something...there are guides online I'm sure. However you may not need a working CPU if the MOBO supports USB BIOS updates :/

 

Sorry man, that's all I know
