Hello folks,
My current computer is lacking in the CPU department so I thought it was time to give it a boost.
I thought of getting a Intel I5 2500K, and 4 or 8 gigs of ram.
But I don't know a good motherboard to go with it, if someone could point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated.
If you can could you make a list on this website, I put the website in google translate so it should be in english:

Hi, what size is your case? I'm about to buy the same stuff as you and I'm thinking about getting this motherboard: [url]http://www.alternate.nl/html/shop/productDetails.html?artno=greg41[/url]
It supports your CPU, has room for 4 RAM sticks and you can also upgrade to SLI/Crossfire if you'd like. Keep in mind that it's an ATX motherboard so you need an ATX case (which you likely already have), but just to make sure.
You can also get an ASUS one but I've had a lot of problems with the ASUS board I have right now (not supporting RAM it's supposed to support, doesn't want to boot after overclocking CPU by 1mhz) so you have to decide for yourself, here's the link for that one (it's also more expensive): [url]http://www.alternate.nl/html/shop/productDetails.html?artno=grea70[/url]
I have an antec 900 so it should be big enough.
But I think I wouldn't need the Z68 series motherboards because I don't have an SSD and I don't need the increase in video transcoding.

Okay, so right now I've got this:

Is this any good?
