which mobo is better for overclocking?

The carbon ac (by a bit), but You'll need to flash the bios (i think) for third gen ryzen. I'd just og with the tomahawk anyways. Also what chip do you plan to oc? What cooler do you have?

I am NOT a professional and a lot of the time what I'm saying is based on limited knowledge and experience. I'm going to be incorrect at times.

The VRMs on both are identical, so they should be similar in terms of overclocking capabilities.
