For the board i am thinking about Asus p8p67 or Asus p8p67pro. As you can read from above i dont need all the extra expansion slots or features etc. My main requirement is that the board should be able to run the 2600k ocd @ around 4.5ghz for 24/7 use under full load. If there are any advantages of the pro over the regular p8p67 which i am unable to see for my requirement i dont mind spending the extra money.
All inputs are welcomed, but before suggesting something please see my main requirement for board and ram highligted in red.
