Hey there, I purchased an ASUS H510MA, but I stumbled upon an article claiming it can't be overclocked. My CPU is an i5 10600K... Luckily, I have the option to return the items if they're not a good fit.

H510 doesn't support overclocking. It's not worth buying an H510 board either—it's essentially the lowest part of the design. For overclocking, you should use a Z490 or Z590 board.

Z690 is compatible with Alder Lake systems. Alternatives like Z490 or Z590 would be suitable options.

It's been a while since I worked on PC help; it seems I should brush up on my chipset details.
