Gigabyte Radeon R9 270x 2gb oc windforce x3

<Mod Edit> that ASRock Z97 Extreme4 i damn expensive 190$... ))

Why don't you get an i5 4460 and a Z97 board now?
The i5 4460 and the 4690K will give ~the same performance in games.
The only downside is that you can OC the 4460.

Why not a 4460 with an h87/b85, or a 4690k with a z97?
I would rather not get an expensive motherboard for a locked processor, or a locked motherboard for an expensive processor...
It makes no sense for me ._.

Because i found this and from the reviews it says it can support overclock of the K series like i5 4690k and the i7 4790k so.. that seems to be the best motherboard so far.. and it haves even fast boot and the Killer E2200 for the latecy online, it says that you get x5 better performance, it seems the best mobo with a price so low.. hmm could it be?

You are right, the performance(FPS) on i5 4460 from the benchmarks with my video card are the same as on a i5 4670k, and that the 4460 isnt even bottelencking the GTX 780 DCII OC, and i will get even a cheaper processor, but i still wait for the Black Friday, maybe i'll be lucky and i will be able to get a 4670k at the price of an i5 4460, in my country between these two there is a difference of 65 dollars that is worth keeping if i get the same performance.. what you guys say?

I would still go for an i5 4460 and either a B85 board or a Z97,if you'd like to SLI/Crossfire in the future or overclock the next CPU you get(provided that you get a K series processor).

I think i convinced myself too, getting an i5 4460 with that motherboard i mentioned above the B85 asrock killer that can overclock the K family, so in future i will be able to upgrade to i5 4670k or i7 4790k and overclock them, thanks for the helpfull informations

I would get a Z97 board when you upgrade to an i5 4690K,B85 isn't really that good for OCing.
It can be done,but I wouldn't risk it.
That's what I would do,but you can always make another thread when you decide to upgrade an the i5 4690K.

I don't think it's wise to get a 4460 and in a short time upgrade it to a 4690k... Personally, i think that would be practically wasting the money spent on the 4460 (unless you can resell it easily).
I would just save a bit and get the 4690k+z97.

I recommend a z97 instead of B85 because, even if you can overclock with the b85, it might not be as good quality and stable as a real overclocker MOBO.
