Hello
I own an Intel Core i7-1700X CPU and I'm unsure about overclocking it on this motherboard. Can you tell me more about the specifics of the board?

Sure, you can try overclocking the motherboard. Just keep in mind that Ryzen doesn't handle it very well. If you're lucky with that chip, you might reach a steady 4.0 GHz, otherwise it's better to stick with the default speeds.

It could be done, but the amount varies greatly depending on several factors.

If you're reaching for 4GHz, will your motherboard support it?

I question the necessity of a better VRM.
