You can push your CPU very far with that board. The VRM is unaffected by your CPU cooler(for the most part).

I think for over clocking runs you will be fine but make sure the heatsinks have good airflow.

On older/extreme platforms it'll matter, but on Haswell much of the power delivery are integrated on to the CPU.

 

So that's a negatory.
