Which motherboard for a i5-7600k (to o.c)?

[sleepyh]

Hi! I'm planning on building a new pc and I have already decided to buy the cpu (i5-7600k) and the gpu (geforce gtx 1060 6gb), and I dont know yet which ram I'm going to buy, but i want 2x8 ddr4 and 2133 Mhz or more. My question is, which motherboard fits me the best? I want to overclock both the cpu and the ram, and im not planning on having 2 gpu's.

well go for the Z270 boards the Asus Strix Z270 Gaming or ,E, there are other variants too will serve you well depends on the budgets
I am a asus Fan so suggesting Asus motherboards but i have heard that the MSI boards are also good so look on that too

The board comes with lots of connectivity options, overclocking potential and features like superior audio codec with headphone amps, bluetooth and wifi.

Any good Z board would do. I would personally go for Asus motherboards too.

Budget is a major factor here and I too think the Asus STRIX Z270-E Gaming is a good choice. With that price you also get WiFi connectivity. Has bulky VRM heat sinks and back panel cover, might conflict with water cooler/case mounting if any.

Also overclocking for overclocking's sake is OK as a standalone experience but it wouldn't really impact the gaming performance of the GTX 1060 if that is one of your concerns/reasons for overclocking as well.
