[SOLVED] Looking for a good mobo for 9700k and cooling to keep it overclocked

[talackostepan]

Hey I'm looking to upgrade from my old GTX 970 and i5-4460
These are the components I've picked so far but I'm open to suggestions:

GPU: MSI GeForce RTX 2070 ARMOR
CPU: 9700k
COOLING: Kraken x62
RAM: GSKILL TridentZ RGB 2x8GB 3200Mhz
STORAGE: Samsung 860 EVO 500GB
Seagate Barracuda 2TB
CASE: H700
POWER SUPPLY: Seasonic Focus Plus Gold 750W

So I'm looking for a decent mobo that could overclock the CPU and has Wifi and Bluetooth.
The budget is $200 but keep in mind that I'm from EU so prices are a bit higher.

I'm also not sure about the cooling would it be enough to keep it at 5Ghz?

Hi talackostepan

I would recommend the ASUS Strix z390 gaming-E with the 9700K. Has built in WIFI and Bluetooth. An excellent MB for the Overclocking enthusiast.

Unfortunately beyond your budget however considering all your other specs it's well worth considering. DON'T go cheap on the MB!!!

The Kraken X62 is one of the best AIO coolers out there and should be capable of coping with 5.00GHz Overclock. This ofc depends on your Overclocking method.

Hey I feel like thats a bit out of my budget where I am the Mobo is 6300 czk ($280) is a bit expensive for me..
Do you have any other cheaper solutions?

Or would ASRock Z390 PHANTOM GAMING 4 be good? It doesn't seem much different from the STRIX one but then again I don't know much about Mobos

I am a power user so I don't use ASRock. There are considerable differences. Many however say their high end boards are good.

The ASRock Z390 PHANTOM GAMING 4 does not have very good VRM efficiency and not really meant for Overclocking IMO.
Also I don't think you will have WIFI or Bluetooth capability without purchasing the necessary cards.

Alright I guess I'll stretch the budget a bit considering that CPUs are really good right now and hopefully I won't need to upgrade for a few years

Thanks!

The asus ones for these new series, have been sub par on the VRMs...
The Phantom is not too bad, but I would say the Extreme 4 is more capable and also pretty good price.I would say if you dont plan on extreme overclock, you will be fine.
