Question I'm looking for the right motherboard for my rig ?

[Moraxus]

Below are the parts I'm working with, being an idiot when it comes to this i was wondering if someone could help me find a good value motherboard that fits with these parts, but also allows for overclocking the i5-13600k.

PNY GeForce RTX 4070 Ti Verto LED Triple Fan
Intel Core i5-13600K, Tray
CM ML240L V2 ARGB Komplett Edition
Corsair Vengeance DDR5 5600MHz 32GB
Kingston FURY Renegade PCIe M.2 NVME SSD 2TB
ASUS TUF Gaming 850W Gold PSU


Thanks!

this will do fine :
ASUS TUF GAMING Z790-PLUS WIFI

although it is way too expensive for my taste :
when i used currency calculator it´s like 350 euro -
which is too much - try to find a cheaper retailer if you can
(but that is the cheapes i would use for this build from that website)

Just a quick follow up, i think i read or heard from someone that TUF motherboards had some issues, any truth to this?

well it depends on the chipset and specific models :
old B450 tuf motherboards for example were not good ,
most of the prime motherboards from asus (except for prime A) are not soo good either
(regardless of chipset) .

but B650/B550/Z790/X670E etc . TUF motherboards are very solid
with good features and good VRM design .
some AM5 motherboards had problems with DDR5 memory
(setting the clock speeds , get it to work properly , load times etc.
but those issues were not exclusive for asus motherboards and were more of a
general optimalization problem for the new AM5 platform in general)

To allow overclocking, most any Z690 or Z790 motherboard will do.
I would look more to Z790 which will usually be a more refined version of the previous Z690.

But, overclocking is no longer a way to get something for nothing.
Chips are binned, and if your 13600K chip were capable of more, it would be a 13900 and sold for more.
Past that, gamers find that allowing the turbo mechanism to boost a couple of cores is more effective for gaming.

What is the make/model of your case?
You will want good front intake to cool your graphics card and motherboard vrm heat sinks. Just my opinion, a top twin tower air cooler Like the Noctua NH-D15swill cool just as well, cost less, and be more reliable.

For value, compare your costs using DDR4 instead of DDR5.
Performance is similar and DDR4 will be cheaper.
