Even if it supported OC , H97 would never be able to oc as much as Z97 do
If SFX form factor PSU isn't a problem for you then you may get this modular one

That doesn't make sense. H97 would OC just as well due to the vrms being integrated and a low phase vrm limiting the oc.

I decided to get the ASRock Z97i. Probably have no benefit at all, other than peace of mind from knowing it can overclock. Right now it is 189.99 with a 30$ rebate, and I can pick it up at the warehouse, vs the ASUS H97i which costs 112+24 (f/s) Unless, someone posts a review on the H97i demonstrating its ability to overclock.

CPU: I"m gonna using my spare 4670k for now, and PSU I'll be using a spare ThermalTake 500W. I'll make the machine module though, so the PSU can be hot swapped out later.

I sorta realized I had no money for his build, so I"m going to make it as affordable as possible, and then upgrade in the future.

With that being said, I have alot of spare parts, so this will still be a powerful build. Just a 2013 build instead of a 2014 one.
