I bought a ROG B550i and wanted to know if any of these chips are available together. I’m concerned that the limited VRM on the B550i might block me from achieving higher boost clocks or stability after overclocking. Could someone advise which ITX board would work best for running an OC 5950X or 5900X? Thanks!

It should work fine. I wouldn't change the 5900X/5950X settings, but it would perform well with memory and FCLK optimization.

Yes, you could potentially overclock the X-570i if it supports it.

Overclocking Zen seems unnecessary unless you aim for per ccx boosts. Most core overclocking usually reduces single-core speed unless you use extreme cooling methods like liquid nitrogen.

Zen 3 offers solid scaling across all versions for core overclocking, though results vary based on the purpose. It provides reasonable room to grow and reliably achieves 4.6-4.8 with minimal problems.

You can modify both units, but the X570-i performs better after changes. Tuning the FCLK and memory usually gives better results anyway.
