Looking to build a new rig using some components from my current computer, the new one will be used mostly for gaming and web browsing
current rig:
i5 2500k running at stock 3.3GHz
Gelid Tranquillo cooler
Gigabyte PA67-UD3 Mobo
Mushkin Silverline RAM 1333MHz 4GB
1GB MSI GTX460 Cyclone OC
1TB Samsung spinpoint F3
Corsair Builders series 600w PSU
Win 7 64bit
NZXT Phantom case
I've decided to keep the processor and PSU but decided to use fresh parts for everything else.
I need recommendations for a new motherboard which is compatible with the i5 2500k preferably also with heatsink recommendations too. Graphics card wise i'm 95% certain i'm going with the GTX970. My budget for the motherboard and cooler is £140 ($200)
Many thanks in advance
