Hi! I am looking to build a gaming PC on a 1.5 thousand (AUD) budget. Can anyone list a good system?
 
Solution
The 6600k is unlocked so it can be overclocked. But you can only overclock it on a motherboard with a Z170 chipset .

The processor runs in the board you selected but it can not be overclocked so paying extra for an unlocked processor is wasted money
