I was going to spend around 140$ on an LGA 1151 I know there are some cheap motherboards out their like pc mate whatever and I think it's stupid to go with a 140$ motherboard and spend the rest of the money to change my i5 6600k to i7 6700k and a cheaper motherboard so basically i was planning on a 140$ motherboard + i5 6600k but if i go with a 90$ motherboard or less + i7 6700k that will blow the shit out of my PC in a good way of course ha? ha? ha? I know the cheaper motherboard are ugly as shit but i think they'll do the job
Yeah! so what do you think MR. Pro in Tech and stuff? 90$ motherboard + i7 6700k or 140$ motherboard + i5 6600k? 

and if you know about some cheap motherboard with the futures that i really need not 1000000 futures that no one uses and sells for more than 100$ 


iSorry fur bd englz I'm an alien

Then i will be needing a better cooler for the cpu and where i live it's always hot i didn't see snow or winter since hitler, i know overclocking is good but can you tell me how will an expensive motherboard affects the performance compared to a cheaper motherboard?

generally it will affect performance by 0.2%

However the Z170 is the only chipset that let's you OC.

Just get a nice Z170 board, a decent cooler like a 212evo and the i5.
