Heey guyss,
im getting a Foxcon A79A-S next week hopefully, And ive been doing some reading up about motherboard phases im not sure whether overclockig on this board will be okay or not,
what i plan to do is; buy this mobo now, and then later on buy a 955BE, which i will want to overlcock, but ive read that some people have blew their motherboards overlcoking these chips on boards with 4+1 phases
this board has 4+1 power phases and so im wondering if i try to overlcock the phenom 955 with the foxconn a79a-s, will i blow the board? i might increase the volts on the cpu but if its to much of a risk i may just increase the fsb until its prime stable without increasing the vcore,
heres a link to the boaards info
the board has a heatsink over the VRMS, whether they are good quality or not im not sure, heres a picture of the sink:

so im guessing the vrm's are at no risk of blowing if i keep my cpu at stock volts??
