As the title says im looking for options on motherboards for a i5 or i7 haswell cpu i will be doing overclocking nothing really extreme maybe later but not for now.
i want it to have support for 32 gb ram as almost all mobos today have anyways, it needs to have usb 3 atlast on the mobo itself dosent matter if it have extra connectors as my case only have 4 usb 2.0 ports on front but it need to have connectors for that.
if there are some motherboards for the lga 1150 socket with built in wifi that would be good but nothing i really need as will be using normal ethernet cable most likley, bluetooth would be a nice extra feature but thats too pretty useless.
overall i want a good mobo as i am pretty happy with the one i have atm M5A99X Evo it is a really good mobo in my options have had no problems and i want a uefi bios one but that too i think most boards today have. overall give me your options on haswell mobos and what you guys look for in them, preferably a blue mobo as most my stuff is blue with blue led fans and so.
And i want it to have atlast 2 pcie 3.0 ports so i can crossfire a second 7970 later as it takes up 2 slots i want it to be able to fit in x16 ports
spec:
cpu: amd fx-4100 OC 4,2 Ghz
mobo: asus m5a99x evo
ram: kingston 16gb 1333 mhz 4x4 gb sticks
gpu: Gigabyte radeon HD 7970 oc 1000 mhz
storage: 120 gb ssd 60x2 ocz and 1tb normal hdd
cooler: antec kuhler 620
case: fractal design core 3000
psu: 730w thermaltake SP-730AH2NH
