## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many ghz without being overclocked?**
A: It's not a 4790K, so not overclockable.

**Q: Is thermal compound included?**
A: It is.  It comes with a CPU cooler (heatsink+fan) which has a square of thermal compound pre-applied. I used a third party CPU Cooler though (Hyper 212 Evo) with Arctic Silver 5, though.

**Q: Why is an intel processor incompatible with intel motherboards?**
A: They are getting out of the market for motherboards.  See attached. http://gizmodo.com/5978232/intel-to-stop-making-desktop-motherboards

**Q: Is there cheap Z-97 MOBO, everything i checked are more than 200$.**
A: Z-97 K is well under $200
