I'm not aware of an ATX board with a G2 socket. If you use your mobile CPU, you'll be limited to DDR3 1333 memory, at best. If you were to find such a board, it is going to be expensive, because it would be made in small quantities due to no demand for such a board. Mini-ITX boards are also fairly expensive, for what they are, again because the demand is lower. You can buy a new ATX board and good desktop CPU for not so much. Why not sell the processor, and build a proper desktop system?

I'd have to say that it seems you may be trying for something that would limit your success...? A place to start? I'd go to Newegg and search their "Costumer choice awards, they have both current and recent. I followed for CPU, RAM and SSD drive, I went my own way for my motherboard... but you will at lest get an idea of what people are having success with.

Looks like I might sell It then. Heard great things about the 2500k sandy's. SSD is already picked out. So in that case i believe i will be needing Suggestions for a proper ATX board. Features are nice. Stability crucial. And I dont always trust the reviews on newegg. That said. With Daniel's Permission. Would It be ok to post some of the things I have in the for Sale section?

Order will be placed in 72 hours. Thank you all for the help. I've made it out of the Washington, D.C. Area back to the Midwest. Building this new machine has taken priority now that things have settled down. Does AoA have a current PC game 'flavor of the week'?

Lian-Li Black Dragon Lord Mid Tower I5 2500k Sandy ASUS P8H77-V Haven't decided on a Radeon 7850 or 7870 - depends on price point. 2x4GB G.Skill Ripjaw 1600 128GB Crucial M4 SSD. That's the basic makeup. Haven't decided on the cosmetic stuff. I'll determine that on monday. I'm using the 1100Watt Seasonic PSU I bought in 2008. Still a damn fine unit.

From what I've seen on line the 2500K performs as well as the 2600K...you won't be dissapointed Forgot! I got a 90 gig Corsair. I hope you have better luck but as much fun as I did...eventually. ":O} Does your new board have the UEIF BIOS interface?
