B450 Aorus Elite 2600 OC
How severely it affects the overclocking depends on the specific setup, but the VRM and Vcore issues are common concerns. For a 2600, these problems can be noticeable but may not always prevent stable overclocks.
There is no b450e available. With your board's poor VRM, the 6-core configuration won't restrict your overclocking.
As long as your chassis provides adequate airflow, keeps the VRM cool and maintains a CPU voltage below 1.3v, you should achieve stable overclocks. The Aorus line is similar to the ROG series from Asus. Before making any changes, ensure you have the latest BIOS updates and use DDR4-3200MHz RAM for optimal performance.
