Also, you can use Win10 without a license if you don't mind the watermark and stuff, otherwise grab a Win10 Pro OEM key off CDkey for $14 (being an OEM key you'll have to re-enter it if you swap the mobo at any point).

Posted November 19, 2018 No point going Z370 with a $2K budget. I didn't include W10 because you can pick it up cheaper from a site that sells pc keys. The psu is more than needed, but $69 after rebate is a good price.

Once overclocked the 8700k and the 9700k are basically equivalent and the 9700k is more expensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also bear in mind that the majority of Z370 boards won't handle a 9900K without throttling if the op's friend ever wanted to drop one in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean they could opt for a z390 motherboard and a 8700k if they wanted to if that is the plan. I know I got a z390 for my 8700k simply because microcenter had alot better selection for z390 compared to z370. If the 9700k was the same price then I could see a reason to get it but at it's current price I don't think it's worth it imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point was more Z390 over Z370. Why go with Z370 when you can get a solid Z390 board for the same money that has good VRM's and will handle a 9900K should the op's friend ever want to drop one in.
