Hello,

This system will be used mostly for gaming.

I currently have:

625W power supply
2 x Radeon 4850 HD in Crossfire
120Gb OCZ Vertex 2 SSD
Arctic Cooler Pro 7 rev.2
A large case (forgot name but it was well reviewed for air OC when bought) with extra internal fans
5 Noctua fans (all used in case)

System ran a Q6600 2.4 oc'ed to 3.2 on a Gigabyte x48-ds4 for ~2 years with no problems.

I want to buy:

i5-2500k 3.3
4Gb 1600 DDR3
A P67 motherboard

I would definitely like to overclock the CPU to 4.5 minimum.

My questions are:
1. Is this feasible?
2. Which motherboard? I live in Poland so can't quote prices, but let's say anything in the bracket of Asus P8P67 Pro is fine.

Finally, the usual - what would you do in my place - as well as a thanks in advance to anyone who replies :)

I don't see anything wrong with the Gigabyte P67 UD3 then.

Although since the Z68's are out already, you may as well roll with one fo them since most are priced similarly (most, not all).
