Ok, so I'm looking to finally get back into doing a build. I am looking to play BF4 on it, ideally at 1440p. Anyway, here is my spec'd parts list so far. However, I was offered a 4930k on a trade, and might take that route instead... But, my question is, what would be the best choices for boards with overclocking potential?
