If you utilize turbo and powerno/CNQ having it peak at 5GHz on a couple of threads might be doable with even a h100 in a well cooled case. You run AC in the summer?

I have used the 990FX-UD3 from gigabyte, and the 990FX Sabertooth I prefered the giga. I also had the 990X-UD3 which was probably my favorite of the 3 except that I do use SLI and wanted a black PCB. The asrock 990FX extreme 3 should also be great bang for the buck. I have used biostar boards in the past and if your just building a rig they are great but if you really want to tune one in nice and overclock it you want someone else board.
