This will only help those who live near a Microcenter retail store, and sales tax must be paid. It's not clear how long this price will last, and there may be better pricing from other retailers (including Tonymacx86 referrals) around Black Friday, but so far this is the best price I've seen on...

Hi guys, I've had this issue for as long as I can remember running OS X and I gave up on it and haven't cared to resolve it until now. My CPU doesn't clock up to 3.4GHz like it's supposed to under heavy load, such as when I use the "yes" command to stress the CPU. The base frequency is 2.7GHz...

The two main ones are Z97 and H97. Get a Z97 if you want an over clockable "K" cpu or an H97 if you want a non "K" cpu that you can't overclock. These are for the Haswell refresh processors like the 4690K or the 4790K. You could use the older Haswell ones ie 4670K or 4770K but the two 90's...
