Well this board has usb 3.0 and one can't have everything! but you lost me on the OC part. Do you mean z68 and z77 have different OC limits? Cuz i'm really thinking about running my processor at 5GHz+

from my experience..ya....
5Ghz depends on the chips too
will post a review of Z77 soon..

Some late night suggestion: Be practical. Please stop living in dream.
Getting stable 5GHz needs to fill up lot of factors, depends heavily on the chip, your OC'ing experience (which I presume is nil at this point of time just from your post), Corsair H100 as cpu cooler (Noctua NH-D14 can't push beyond 4.8GHz and remain stable) and above all a very good motherboard (at least Asus P8Z68-V pro, deluxe or extreme-z is better for higher power phases).
If you achieve 4.5GHz stable without burning motherboard or/and processor, then you should be very happy with your achievement.

^^basically that's a binned chip...sandy bridge CPU's are notorious for having low multi's

Guys please recommend a good UPS too (I know it wasn't initially in the budget and is something extra and out of budget.) budget 1.5k to 2k even a cheaper one will do! backup needed just for a few minutes.
Anyway my cousin (who is also buying the components with me) against my advice has decided to go for a non unlocked IVY bridge processor and the supporting motherboard.
He wants to go with the Intel 3550 so please suggest a suitable motherboard for it
Total should come less than or equal to 20k (mobo + proccy).
P.S. if he is not going to overclock ever does he really need the aftermarket cooler.
@ mods- is it okay to display my cousin's problem here or should i make a new thread?
Guys please reply soon as we are going to buy the components by around wednesday.
