is there any decent mobo available for sandy bridge(lga 1155) at around 5~6k price range.
planning to buy a i5, have a budget of aroung 15~16k for both proccy and mobo.

please give suggestions and any possible alternatives !:hap2:
 
hey thanx for the suggestions,,,,
intel mobo's dnt support overclocking right???
the msi mobo does it support overclocking???
 
What are you looking to buy? What are your needs? Please use the PC buying format.

If you're looking to overclock you need a 'K' processor and a P67 or Z68 motherboard.

i5 2500K costs Rs. 10.8k

The cheapest P67 motherboard range starts from 7k.
 
i dont need advice on buyin a whole rig , thats y didnt post in a "PC buying" format.

just need suggestions on a good lga1155 mobo in 5~6k range that overclocks,, not intel original boards
 
if u want to OC Sandy Bridge u need a 2500K or a 2600K processor and a P67 or Z67 motherboard

the 2500K is Rs.10800

And the cheapest P67 motherboard is around Rs.7800 [ASUS P8P67-M]

You do the maths.
 
if you really wanna overclock, the cheapest combo would be with intel board only :

i5 2500K + Intel DZ68DB --> 10800 + 7200 = 18000/-

So either you have to increase your budget or forget overclocking :P (no offense :) )
 
In most applications like gaming,browsing,watching movies etc, overclocking wont make a huge difference because the cpu is already very powerful.If you cant increase the budget go for i5-2400+H67 mobo.Its enough for most purposes.
