If you have the money for those CPU's I think you should be looking at a better board. Assuming that you want to overclock etc.

Have a look at the Asus & MSI boards
 
not looking at overclocking just looking for a good gameing experience but am not sure what to get I realize that i7 benefits are only the hyper threading but still confused a bit on what to go any suggestions would help what board would you suggest ?
 
For a gaming rig you should get an i5 4670k otherwise you're wasting your money. For the motherboard I'd go for something blue that way it'll match your 'cards.
 
Go for the 4670, because you said you wont be overclocking. If you want a solid, non-overlocking board, something like the ASUS Z97-A is a good choice.
 
nice thank you guys I really do appricate the info :) and yes 4670 would be good I wont need the 4670k because I don't plan on OC ing

Oh sorry, I meant the 4690. Its the new, devils canyon version. Its pretty much the same price. Barnsley confused me :P
