Does this Motherboard support overclocking?

Go to solution Solved by Pooherino ツ,

Hey guys, was looking to get a new Skylake chip, maybe even an overclockable one.

Was considering the i5 6600K.

I've seen Linus' review, but I was just wondering if any of you knew if this motherboard could overclock the chip and how do you know.

I'm a beginner, just wondering about OCing in the future...

Any help could be appreciated, link is placed below:

yes any Z series will support overclocking

Yes any Intel Motherboard that has a "Z" in front of the number does support overclocking. The ones that start with an "H" don't support it.
