Asus P8Z77-M PRO overclocking capabilities.

[Ghost2609]

Hey guys I want to know if P8Z77-M Pro can overclock good because I found out that it has a 6+2 phase power design and as I read it is lighter than other same chipset motherboards. (I read that on here https://www.hardocp.com/article/2012/07/30/asus_p8z77m_pro_microatx_motherboard_review )
But I read on other forums or on this one it overclocks quite good. So do power phases not matter as much?

I will say nobody will know that, because it should about 6 yrs ( from the review date) old. it should be the used one, so it was good when it came out, but nobody will know for new. Yes, most power phase is good for overclock.

I guess you don't buy it yet. How much will you pay? Here is one review: Ryzen 3 1200 ( $90) vs the old i5 2500K vs fx 8370 https://www.techspot.com/review/1474-ryzen-vs-older-budget-cpus/ the point is if you pay too much, forget about it. Buy the new cpu/MB/ddr4. If you want to buy the new PC, then post your budget, our member will help you out.

But if you want to go for it, recommend to read the oc guids online, I add one for you, and try it out: https://www.overclock.net/forum/5-intel-cpus/1198504-complete-overclocking-guide-sandy-bridge-ivy-bridge-asrock-edition.html
