which top range motherboard and memory is best?
Hello, I have a 10900K CPU and am searching for a high-end board and RAM to push it to its limits. I’ve noticed ASUS Extreme, MSI Godlike, and Aorus Xtreme are popular choices for overclocking. I’m trying to find the best value within my budget, preferably on sites like Newegg or Amazon, with the goal of getting the most performance possible.
Are you really trying to log in if not? Even with a custom loop, hitting 5.3ghz on a 10900k is pretty impressive—most Z490 boards can easily achieve that. For memory, focus on the 5100mhz one if you need top performance without extra overhead, though it won’t exceed that speed at that frequency. Interestingly, if you’re serious about overclocking, consider an older CPU with plenty of room or a modern Ryzen 5000, which offers more overclocking options and better stock performance.
I'm searching for additional benefits these boards provide, like Thunderbolt 3 and dual LAN ports.
