Supports overclocking and you'll probably reach 4.5ghz

What?! I tought you could only reach that number on Z boards...  :blink:

Nope. You can overclock on H81 boards, and it works just as well as Z boards. How high you'll get depends on how good you did in the chip lottery.

Asus, asrock, gigabyte. and i think msi allow overclocking on h81 boards only for the g3258
