Best overclocking Z370 ITX motherboard?

ChocAndGray · 23 Nov 2017 at 17:32

@8 Pack I have a Z370-I Strix and not too keen on it, it feels like Asus have cut corners on their small form factor boards compared to the Maximus boards like the Impact and Gene.

I would love to know your opinion on the Z370 itx boards, is the Fatal1ty better than the Strix for overclocking?

Not tried it.

Strix I was ok in my testing. But yes agree much prefer impacts of the past myself.

Ah that’s a shame, would have been interesting to hear your opinion on it.

No worries appreciate the response anyway.

The Asrock Z370M-ITX/ac looks to have a fantastic VRM implementation and overclocking ability @Jay343434 . Def check the reviews, it's my first choice if I do switch over the Covfefe

Sorry just saw this thread.

I have the Asus Z370I Strix two months now. I am very happy with it, and is very good on overclocking.
My 8600K (delided it with the tool), can do either 5.3Ghz with 4Ghz Ring or 5.1Ghz with 4.8Ghz ring, which is my current day to day setup. Power 1.4 max (adaptive setting).
Ram, the Ripjaws 3600C16 ram, is running at 4133C17 at 1.3996v
