alexzar14 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Guys what 1151 motherboard do you recommend? Doesn't have to be too fancy, I don't play games on PC and use it only for p3d and xp11. Not too cheap either, nice board in between that can take future 14mm CPUs (I doubt 10mm is around the corner, so let's go with a board that can also take coffee lake and beyond). I'm not going for coffee lake now though, I am getting a 7700 unless you say there is some advantage with 8700k (it has lower speed of 3.8 I think). And, what RAM do you recommend with that?

alexzar14 Posted December 11, 2017 Author Share Posted December 11, 2017 Oh my, RAM used to be the lease expensive item, $200 OUCH! But it's ok I'm gonna go with it this G.skill 3200, thanks for pointing out to it. How about this board, it has high sales rate: https://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157739 And Asus has nothing interesting in the 270 family.
