I'm building a new gaming rig with the Intel i7-14700K and need advice on the best motherboard to pair with it. I'm looking for options that offer good performance, especially for gaming and potential overclocking. What are the top recommendations in terms of features, price, and reliability? Are there any specific models I should avoid? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The i7-14700K is a beast! For a gaming and overclocking build, a Z790 chipset motherboard is your best bet. The MSI Pro Z790-A Max WiFi offers excellent value, while the MSI MAG Z790 Tomahawk MAX and ASRock Z790 Steel Legend are also popular choices. For higher-end options, consider the Gigabyte Z790 Aorus Elite AX or MSI MEG Z790 ACE. Research specific models for compatibility with your other components. Avoid older chipsets like Z690 as they may require a BIOS update.
Any z790 motherboard is ok.
