I just wrapped up my budget PC build and landed an Intel DQ87PG motherboard. Right now I’m thinking about boosting its speed. I’ve spotted some solid Haswell deals and considered getting an i5 4690K, but I’m not sure if my board can handle overclocking. I checked the specs: i5 4460, 16GB RAM, 1600MHz GPU, GTX 770, 120GB SSD, 500GB HDD. I’m curious if anyone knows whether this board supports overclocking.

That looks like a q87 board, and that chipste doesn't support overclocking.

Hey everyone, I was thinking about getting a Z87 or Z97 board instead. Or maybe I should just sell this PC.
