    MoBo CPU Compatbility?

    Hello, I was just trying to find some feedback on the compatiblity of the mobo and cpu I am looking at buying.

    Mobo:

    CPU:

    Also the MoBo I posted has a current promo that it comes with free Memory, how good is the memory it comes with?

    Do not get Biostar. Period. Easily one of the worst manufacturers of boards. I think they share fab facilities with ECS.

    Basically you're paying $110 for $45 worth of ram, and a free junk board.

    If you want a Z77, get an Asrock, I think they're about $95.

    The Extreme4 is the normal "Go to" for Z77, though I prefer the cheaper Z77.

    I dont believe the Z68 natively supports Ivy bridge CPUs, so no.
