Gigabyte Z87 HD3 for overclocking

[Blog21]

I have a 4770k Haswell. I want my chip to be running @4.4 or 4.5 Ghz. Will my mobo be able to do the job ?

yes it will, only thing i am curious about is what CPU cooler do you have? If you have a Cooler Master hyper 212 EVO or better, i would recommend going to 4.4 - 4.5Ghz any day, it has really god improvements, anything below (stock-$25 cooler) barely any OC.

If you have any other questions, just ask and We'll gladly help

Sorry for late Reply. I have the corsair H100i. How much Voltage is recommended for 4.4 Ghz and can you give me a quick guide for overclocking.

You will need approx 1.200 v. to 1.300 v. to get to 4.5 GHz, but higher that 1.300 v. is not recommended.
