Here bud, I'll answer you.

 

Yeah, I wouldn't change the CPU just because you change the board. Sure something like a Sklylake would be nice but then you have ram and everything else to buy. Just get the MOBO.

Right now i have the MSI Z97 SLI-55 but im looking to go MATX because having a 20x20cm case on my desk is quite unpleasent. (SHOUTOUT TO THE Corsair 500R FUCKING MID TOWER AS BIG AS A FULL :Kappa:). But here is the question, i have a i7-4770K. Is it worth going down to a Matx motherboard without an upgrade? I dont overclock (i could but fuck me) so. Yes no maybe?

 

TO CLARIFY, I HAVE ATX, I WANNA GO Matx (or even mini itx if i have to but that iradicates future Sli/crossfire which isnt smart imo).

dont waste money on another board unless it died

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.
