Since early 2000s I have run gentoo at home and at work (several dozen machines real + virtual 100TB+ of storage). In 2005 I switched to x64 with the migration to Athlon64.
Details hmm too many machines to list..
My home p5q-pro based HTPC which has been running almost 24/7 since I installed it in December of 2008 this was an upgrade from the previous HTPC dual processor dual core Opteron system.

Question: Why?
I use to run Linux as my main OS on my laptop back in college. Then I stopped doing that when I realized I needed Windows XP than Ubuntu/Sabayon Linux/Fedora for certain applications. Nowadays, I just run Linux Mint inside a virtual machine for /'web browsing".......
Well I am planning to build my first box and want to run ubuntu on it but I have not come across anybody who is running ubuntu on their newly built system.
Ubuntu distro is compatible with the Z87 chipset but want to know the configuration if anybody recently installed ubuntu on the same chipset with Intel i7 4770K processor.
I came across a review written for Asus Z87-A motherboard where the person is running ubuntu on it without any issues.. so I guess it is compatible and I am leaning towards getting the same motherboard that will house i7 4770K.
wow finalizing the parts is so much fun !

Hoss Ubuntu, or any Linux, will run on just about any 586 or later hardware out there. The only sticky points are latest-generation just-released GPUs. Especially AMD cards.
Most hardware will function at a baseline...more advanced hardware features may be lacking. I.e. audio cards, many-button mice beyond L/R/wheel/forward/back etc.

Before you buy anything, I highly recommend that you create a thread here in General Hardware with the answers from this sticky in it so that you can get a more solid overview of how your build is going to stack up. It is your first build so you should be getting as much info and constructive criticism as possible.
As for Linux, Linux support for mobos have been fairly decent in the past few years.
Great, thanks for the info skripka, I feel better
Dangman, the first thing I did was to post a thread with answers to all the questions from the sticky:

Great, I guess in that case my two biggest componets (processor and motherboard) are finalized
Came across this thread and looks like ubuntu 14.04 LTS (latest distro) works just fine on the Z87 chipset

LOL!

I don't think they are. In your last thread, you clearly didn't have the budget for the Core i7 4770 (not overclock capable) let alone the Core i7 4770K (overclock capable). Hence why Tiraides had to go with the FX-8200 and moderate priced motherboard. Did you increase your budget by another $250 to $300 or something?
In addition, you weren't all that clear on overclocking. So why are you going for an overclock capable CPU and motherboard when past answers showed that you don't know what it is?
Well I must admit that when I created that thread, I hadn't started any research.. then I started reading more and more about the hardware. I am planning to build my machine in around one months time so if you read that thread.. people suggested me to post my configuration when I am ready to buy
The hardware research is addictive and so are the components. In the quest of getting bigger and better and "little bit more" I ended up increasing my budget
At this point I am sure I will not be gaming so I would never feel the need to overclock but at the same time I am planning to use the machine for a type of development which would load the cpu pretty good... so I might overclock.
. This was the reason I selected 4770K and the ASUS Z87-A.i still have a month's time to starting buying the components so I might change the motherboard and go with something else..
ah this is so addictive

You have to be extremely sure that you will be overclocking in order for the higher costs for the Z87, "K" series CPUs, and good quality 3rd party HSF (you'll need one to overclock well) to be justified. It cannot be a "maybe in the future". It's a yes or a no type of deal IMO as that can mean an extra $80 to $120.
right now both 4770 and 4770K are at same price at NE.

Here is the comparison of both and the tech specs for 4770K does not say it can be overclocked ??
Here is my newbie question:
What factors make a motherboard overclock capable ? or when we look at the motherboard specs .. how do we know that it came take an overclock-able cpu ?

Right now yes, the two are the same price. But last week they weren't the same price: There was a $20 to $40 price difference between the two CPUs. Remember what I said in your other thread?:
So in a month from now, the 4770K would not be a good choice if you're not 100% sure about overclocking as it could go back to its normal price of $330 to $340.
This is where following hardware news/information for the last several years comes in handy: Intel has only allowed the "K" series CPUs to be fully overclocked for the past 5 years or so. It's pretty much a given at this point in time that you need a "K" series to overclock.
Easy for Intel: They just lock out overclock features on any motherboard not belonging to the overclock capable chipset platform. In other words, in this case for LGA 1150 mobos, Intel is only allowing you to overclock on their Z87 motherboard chipset for the time being. So thats how you know if the mobo can technically overclock: Look at the chipset. No Z87, no overclock.
With that said, just because the motherboard is a Z87 motherboard does not mean it can overclock well. It just means it has the option to overclock. Whether or not a motherboard can really overclock well is best found out by reading as many proper reviews of that motherboard you can find.
Oh wow thanks for the info, I will read more on chipsets..

Oh and in addition to the difference in CPU pricing, there's also the difference in motherboard pricing. Right now, you can get a solid non-overclock motherboard for around $80 to $90. If you're overclocking, you're looking at around $120 to $140 for the motherboard. So that's a difference of $30 to $50 just for the motherboard.
Then there's the requirement of a 3rd party HSF to overclock. Unless you live in a hot/warm area and cannot afford to run the AC all day long, more than likely the stock HSF that comes with most Intel CPUs these days will be good enough cooling wise. But once you overclock, you're going to need a 3rd party HSF to handle the extra heat coming from an overclocked CPU. You're looking at $30 to $50 minimum for a solid HSF
Now you can see what I meant when I said "It's a yes or a no type of deal IMO as that can mean an extra $80 to $120."
I totally agree with you. So if I go with a 4770 then what are my options for a solid non overclocking MB ? I have to go with some other chipset right ?

You technically don't have to go with another chipset. There have been situations where a Z87 mobo would be a better fit even with a non-overclock capable CPU since the OP had certain feature requirements found only on Z87s.
You're still 1-2 months away form buying the parts. So it would do you no good to look at specific mobos at this time. Again, our parts recommendations do change over time on account of pricing and availability.
