Good forum, I have a great doubt and is that I do not know what to buy, I have an i7 7700k delied..the board the boy to use for overclocking ...

ASUS Maximus VIII Extreme

MSI Z170A XPOWER Titanium Edition




I have understood that the 2 have 16 phases you will buy ??

lol you would be lucky to need 6 phases for that CPU.

Anything over 8 phases doesn't do much extra, apart from supply slightly smoother voltage with less stress on the VRMs. My MSI Big Bang Xpower II had 24 or something stupid like that. Military grade too. It died 11 months in lol.

Do not you like any of those two plates?

Budget 200 euros

Has 16 phases?

More than enough

Edit. Oh, you are asking me how many it has? no idea dude Google it.

 

[makina69]

I realized that it is better the z170 xpower with 16 phases the other has 12 phases .... and with a high price that is not worth ...

What are you going to do? Unless you go extreme OC you don't need all those phases.

I have an i7 7700k with delid and i want to put it at 5.3ghz


The truth is the best plates in the market and worth 200 euros and according to other sites worth 300

To buy something inferior being able to have something superior to an affordable price ... ??
