It seems to include a variant of the Asus P8H61-M PRO board that works with all Sandy Bridge or Ivy Bridge CPUs. A reliable choice would be an i7-2600. If you're okay updating the BIOS, adding an i7-3770 might also fit well.

Which is superior, the i7-2600 or the i7-2700K? (Minor price variations are ignored.) Both should function seamlessly without complications.
