QUOTE(stasio @ May 16 2014, 04:48 AM) Mostly improvement from Z87X-OC is stated on pic (have many). I have both boards and Z97X-SOC Force are much better. -BIOS has been updated(pretty damn smooth for general functions) -New LAN with Killer NIC -New Audio chip -New I/O chips -New digital VRM models -SMT DIMMs (at the back of board) -DIP Switches for disabling memory channels -Added in new clock gen just for BCLK -Added in more support in BIOS for things like boot modes, PWM frequencies, Spread Spectrum, DDRVTT, DMI controls -Total of 8 Fans etc,etc.....can be seen here also: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/s/yfu1khk...piry=1399886028Edit: I am very satisfied with new SOC Force. How board perform,you can see here (9 new 3D WR): http://gigabytedaily.blogspot.com/2014/05/...mashes-all.htmlhttp://www.gigabyte.com/press-center/news-page.aspx?nid=1282saw on your siggy GA-Z97X-SOC Force ,Core i7-4770K @ 4.7 GHz GA-Z87X-OC ,Core i7-4770K @ 4.7 GHz what cooler u are using? on z97 chipset just the same cpu clock.. cannot be higher? u should get more higher with new board..

QUOTE(stasio @ May 16 2014, 12:01 PM) Is water cooling XSPC RayStorm. With Haswell 4770K is same multi x47...as higher temp reaches almost 100C with full load. With upcoming Haswell Refresh (Devil's Canyon) 4790K (next month) will be higher for sure. The most important is that Z97 will be also compatible for future Broadwell CPU (14nm).  i hope u get the 4790k and work on it, the rest let go to me, i low baller the price.. what psu u using?
