Hello guys.I recently bought a new computer.My CPU is i5-4670K and my mobo is ga z87-hd3.Is this motherboard good for overclocking to 4,5 in the future?

As far as I know, Intel 8 series mobos don't have the impact on OCing like they used to, since Haswell now has the VRM located on the die of the CPU.

Didn't really understand what you meant.I don't really understand computers at all 😀.

Basically, that mobo will be fine. Whether or not you can hit 4.5 GHz is really up to the CPU.

Every chip is different and not all silicon is made equally; each CPU, even of the same make and model, has different OCing potential.
