Decided to go Intel with a 4690k, what motherboard can I get for less than £140.

Need more at least 4 USB out the back and 3 USB on motherboard.
Should I start a new thread for this?

I have a full rig I'm trying to sell for £200, it's missing the cpu as I'm using it in another rig, it's a Z87 motherboard from gigabyte, pm me if you want to know more.

Lol... leave it out Endy, we do but they're as dodgy as your craigslist, ebay is fine enough. 

ive used craigslist a lot, for selling and buying, and so far no issues...

Stress tested with prime 95 for 24hrs or IBT AVX? You need a voltage increase at those clocks or you'll be corrupting data.

Not for 24 hours, I did it years ago, i think for 4 hours or something.  I don't remember leaving it running overnight. I know that anything above my current settings was causing problems.

Prime needs 24 hours on standard settings, there are other settings you can use to get a quicker confirmation of stability but 4 hours isn't enough from experience, I use IBT AVX to get a quick indication of stability. 

 

I once used prime 95 for 4 hours+ and when testing with IBT AVX it took 15 seconds to show that I was writing corrupt data to my hard drives.
