So i decided to build an old buget pc, And im Probably Going for i7 2600/k, I have 12gigs of Ram from old AMD build, and just bought rx 570. So i want some suggestions what's best options for 1155 motherboards. My old CPu was Phenom II x4 that's te reason im buying something cheap because my phenom is bottlenecking rx 570 hard.

looking to overclock? you may want to settle for a 3770k and get a fairly cheap motherboard so you can also save on the CPU cooler. 

I WILL find your ITX build thread, and I WILL recommend the SIlverstone Sugo SG13B

 

Primary PC:

i7 8086k - EVGA Z370 Classified K - G.Skill Trident Z RGB - WD SN750 - Jedi Order Titan Xp - Hyper 212 Black (with RGB Riing flair) - EVGA G3 650W - dual booting Windows 11 and Fedora Linux - Black and green theme, Razer brainwashed me.

Draws 400 watts under max load, for reference.

 

PSU tier list

How many watts do I need?

PSU misconceptions, protections explained, group reg is bad

Just about any Z68 or P67 board should work.

This seller says it's being sold with a 90 day warranty, should be pretty nice

To be fair, the warranty is probably pretty useless. It'd likely cost you more than the board to ship it back to him.

Those boards are getting harder and harder to find, try and find a Sabertooth board. They were pretty nice. I was a pretty big fan of my Gigabyte P67 board as well. Honestly, though, you can likely get a better deal on something like an 8400 and a B series board. Or a Ryzen 1600 and a matched B series board.
