i7 3770k and an ASUS P8Z77-V Pro or a Gigabyte GA-Z77X-UD5H would do you more than fine. I'm at least assuming you're not on Socket 1155 so you'd need a new motherboard as well?
Alright thanks for your input. The price-point is so tempting though. Maybe shoulda bought it in the first place... When it comes to OC'ing, do you run a fixed voltage or use offset? I've been having huge headaches trying to get the...

At 4.0Ghz i had to use offset of -0.280. At 4.5Ghz my offset was...

Sorry to bring up an old thread, but I'm having this exact same problem. I'm at 4.4 GHz stable on my 3570k at 1.210 volts, but I'm not sure how to...
