    wat? those combos dont make sense .... crappy retailers strikes once again.

    why do they pair a K series CPU with a B85 chipset mobo. (k means it can overclock, but the B85 chipset cant OC)

    and why do they pair the 4570 with the Z87 chipset? (Z87 can OC but the 4570 cant oc)

    TBH, dont buy either combo. they are badly paired

    A B series board with a 4670K makes no sense because you cannot overclock on that board. You might as well get a regular 4670.

    The difference between a 4570 and 4670 at stock speeds isn't going to be huge so you might as well get the second option because you can change the processor to a K series one later and get overclocking support.
