ASUS H81M-K Overclocking?
ASUS H81M-K Overclocking?
Hi everyone
I'm thinking about purchasing this motherboard and pairing it with a Pentium G3258. The main reason is that it's an excellent overclocker, and I wanted to ask if anyone who owns this board knows whether it supports overclocking and how far it can go. Thanks!

If you get any MoBo, you can make changes like they could.

If you get any modifications there, you'll be able to change them as much as they could.

seen H81 M plus overclocking makes it a solid choice to pair with a G3258
I don't see it here.
You might not understand it.

I would recommend the B85M Pro4.
I own this board to verify it's not possible to exceed its overclock limit. You can purchase the H81M- D Plus @newegg for $44.99 after a $10 rebate card, or the MSI z87-G41 on eBay for $55 to $65. I successfully achieved overclocks up to 4.5Ghz (with a maximum temperature of 60-65°C) using an Enermax ETS-T40-TB CPU cooler.
I wouldn't expect an MSI MoBo. Many users have faced problems with MSI MoBos. While not everyone experiences issues, there are more who have had difficulties than those without them. The H81M-D PLUS is a solid choice and the OP can upgrade it to 3258 to 4.0-4.2 GHz.
I received the Mobo and can make changes to it, which makes me question why you're considered the best option despite your concerns.
I received the Mobo and I can customize it, so I’m not sure why you think you’re the best option when you seem to be mistaken.
Actually, how much would it cost if you don’t mind me asking—I might get that Mobo if it can oc it significantly less than the others.
