Motherboard for i5 7600k

[TURTLEZZ]

Does anyone know a motherboard with that supports i5 7600k gtx 1050ti DDR4 ram ATX size and includes a wifi chip under $120 Please.

You could get a 1600, not get a CPU cooler and a cheaper b350 motherboard and probably get a 3gb 1060 in your budget for the same money

Cheapest z270 board I can find with built in wifi that is at sized.


Still think my above post is the way to go however

I recommend the EVGA - Z270 Stinger Mini ITX LGA1151 Motherboard

Note it's an ITX motherboard.

I own a 7600k and I agree that Ryzen is the way to go. What's your total budget for the PC? We can help you come up with a better Ryzen build.

There is no ATX motherboard with in-built Wi-Fi chip for $120, This is the best you can get (it's Mini): https://www.amazon.com/ASRock-Z270M-ITX-LGA1151-Mini-ITX-Motherboard/dp/B01N1MOFKZ/ref=sr_1_5?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1503531927&sr=1-5&keywords=motherboard%2Bwifi%2Batx&th=1

If the P.C is for straight gaming stay away from Ryzen. You simply can't beat the aggressive single thread performance from Intel.

Any Z270 mobo with a decent VRM setup will do. Just find one with WiFi. Even if you can't find one with WiFi the add-on cards are fairly cheap.

A 1600 with a 1060 will beat a 7600k with a 1050ti literally every time

1. Be aware that everything under $120 will give you a substandard sound solution...ALC887, ALC892 or sumthin like that.

2. No sense matching a k series processor with anything but a Z270 MoBo. You can't OC the CPU w/o the Z270 MoBo.

3. The entry point for a MoBo w/ a "k" series processor with gaming quality on board sound / LAN, etc is the MSI Z270 SLI Plus..... which runs about $30

I don't recommend wireless on a desktop, especially when used for gaming, but for MoBos I would use, the cheapest ATX one comes in at about $169

MSI Z270 Gaming M6

The ASRock Z270 KILLER SLI/AC come sin at $130 .. it gives you WiFI but saddles you with the low budget Realtek ALC892 audio solution

In synthetic benchmarks, maybe. In the real world where games use single thread, not a chance.

 

[Supahos]

The 1050ti will be the bottleneck, not the 7600k... In the real world a whole system matters, not just a cpu

Umm so a GTX 1060 won't beat a GTX 1050Ti? Lol at least read the whole thing. Nevertheless Ryzen has more cores than intel and is slightly beaten in single thread performance. You get more value out of the Ryzen. Plus there's no harm in getting more cores (Ryzen). You never know when you'll need them in the future.

 

[Supahos]

Yeah he's just following me from post to post trolling. Blue fanboy

If the game is GPU dependent, you would be correct. However most titles coming out now are CPU dependent or a combination of both. I would rather have a 7600k platform and be able to upgrade the GPU in the future than be be stuck with an inferior Ryzen setup.

What are you saying I did agree with him. In synthetic benchmarks the 1060+ryzen setup would get better frames. However in gaming you would be better off with an Intel platform.

 

[Supahos]

No game will be CPU depedent with a 1600 or a 7600k unless you like low settings when. Paired with a 1050ti... Hell my gtx760 still holds back my 3350p in most newer stuff and a 760 is basically the same gpu as a 1050ti. So back to topic. A 1600 with a 1060 will always beat a 1050ti

No sense arguing, the numbers are available.

And there you have it. The Intel CPU wasn't even overclocked. Numbers don't lie


Oh please Supahos. PubG, H1Z1, Arma 3, Starcraft 2, HOTS, the list goes on. All CPU, single-threaded CPU dependent games.

 

[Supahos]

Yes when paired with a gpu that isn't a low tier gpu. In those cases the 1050ti will still hold back the 7600k bad enough it'll lose handily to a 1060 with a 1600. I don't care if the 7600k was on ln2 running at 8ghz it can make a 1050ti go faster.
