I just landed a working and lightly used i7 6700k, Gigabyte z170x-ud5 TH mobo, 32GB DDR4 3000MHZ. These components will be replacing my very aged but working still at 5GHZ - i7 2700k.
So my questions are:
Would you spend the money on a new motherboard z270? (I have read the z270 has better BCLK tuning)
Would you buy higher freq ram knowing that you will be overclocking this because it is supported by a pretty nice custom waterloop.
I will be purchasing a Samsung EVO 960 PRO 512GB m.2 sata.
What would you do?
