Would like to overclock a little, but nothing too much. No choice of color --- ATX

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813131877 ...I use this mobo, it's ugly but has 5 year warranty...no issues so far, can flash BIOS w/o CPU or RAM, uses q-connector for front panel wires.


/e Both are good overclockers...and ASUS tech support now has an overclocking help dept., no charge.


...and there's also this great OC guide for FX CPU's on ASUS boards. http://www.overclock.net/t/1348623/amd-bulldozer-and-piledriver-overclocking-guide-asus-motherboard
