MSI B150M Bazooka

What do you think about MSI B150M Bazooka? 

I want to use it with an i7 6700k and 1070ti

It's good enough for those components?

If you are going to have a K sku'd CPU such as the 6700k the B150M will hold that chip bad since it cant overclock. You need to find a Z170 board to unlock the full potential of that ship to be able to overclock it.

It´s a decent board. I had it´s bigger brother, the Z170-A and it was a great board. Had it with a 6700k overclocked to 4.6Ghz for over three years without issues

Well that would be a great upgrade.

I would recommend going with a X470 board. But if you are on a budget a B450 board would do as well.

My recommendations would be Gigabyte B450 Aorus Elite or B450 Aorus Pro Wi-Fi if you need Wi-Fi.

As for X470, on a budget MSI´s X470 Gaming Plus or Gaming Pro. If not so much then Asus´s Crosshair VII Hero or Gigabyte X470 Aorus Gaming 5
