Any of these motherboards will fit it [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

You'll want [ Register or Signin to view external links. ] if you're overclocking.

7600k is a downgrade from the 4790k. Also RAM is super expensive right now. Keep the CPU and RAM, and just buy a Z97 motherboard. You'll be able to find one used, no problem. Check out places like /r/hardwareswap
