^why an H67 board? get Z68 if you are getting k processor.

^^ You cannot overclock your 'k' processor using an h67 motherboard. Get a p67 or z68 motherboard as bare minimum.

Board suggested by jaskanwar are pretty good. Go for the gigabyte z68 D2H-B3 board.

Are you sure ?? Asus website suggest it allows overclocking :idea:
ASUSTeK Computer Inc. - Motherboards- ASUS P8H67-M PRO

Off Topic ( Take it very lightly )

See I am right its very confusing now a days....

^^ Yes i am 100% sure. See h67 does not allow to increase the cpu multiplier and the bclk in sandybridge chips is locked. So it can't be increased therefore restricting overclocking. Increasing multiplier is the only way and for that, you need p67 or z68 motherboards.

Check this.

Guys I have another problem plzz tell me what to do..

I had ordered for Corsair CMX4GX3M1A1600C9 4gb x 2 on primeabgb.com but I havent got the confirmation mail of web order by them. I have mailed them about this and they told me that they will take immediate action on this.
Now I am thinking that I should drop the idea of Corsair RAM. and will go for Gskill F3-12800CL9D-8GBXL . So tell me is it compatible with Asus P8Z68- V motherboard or not. If yes then which one is better Corsair or G-Skill ??

POST EDITED

Received Motherboard + Processor + Cabinet

But the front panel of cabinet is damaged and found that cabinet is very delicate . I will never recommend COOLERMASTER products.:!::!::!::!:
I mean yaar I have spent Rs. 6100/- for that product and found that the locking system of front panel bezel is very delicate.I can brake very easily.:x



One of my friend has COOLERMASTER Cosmos cabinet. when he installed third party heatsink and fan for CPU he just can not put the side panel on place... heatsink touches that side panel....who can expect such kinda problem with such an expensive cabinet.....coolermaster sucks....

I didnt know which cabby it was but cosmos for 6k :shock:
u bought storm scout which is mid tower.(saw this later)
I thought it was a mid tower cause of price.
my cabby (atcs 840) is good except for the front part (plastic notch) but i dont open very often so its not a prob. rest build quality is good for that price range.

G.skill is equally good and also does not come in the way of most CPU coolers Check this

Also I suggest you save up and get the GPU or something similar as suggested by Cilius, later on as an upgrade. But of you are happy with the 9800 then let it be. But the latest games will soon cripple.

His friends Cosmos LOL!

Its really surprising that a full tower is not able to contain a third party cooler/heat sink. Not a nice development.

Get your cabbie replaced. The shipping charges will pinch though. Dont keep a defective product. Or are you complaining about the build quality in general.

I would have recommended a NZXT Tempest Evo, a tank of a case, if I had seen this thread before. But the CM you have should be equally good.
