its a z87 board for a locked processor but reason I got it was all the talk about reliability. They make the TUF boards to last, so this better last some years. Not into the DOA thing either. Got the 4770 for TSX and the other features 4770K didn't have. Plus the cost. Got it down to $279 with a free 8GB of RAM. Didn't go amd because... fail.
