Should be a decent budget gaming setup good for 5/5.1Ghz all core OC?

It appears to have the same VRM / power setup as the the ROG strix boards, however, this picture shows 3 missing caps on the left bank (left of CPU socket) which makes me wonder if it is actually the same:

Thanks. Looks like they both have 6 layers and 12 phase VRMs for CPU, only difference being +2 for GT/SA on asus and +1+1 for MSI.
