Motherboard VRM

[Marcus Torre DeProspero]

Which z97 motherboard has good VRMs? By that I mean which ones don't overheat and last a long time as well as overclock really far.

What's your budget?
There shouldn't be any boards with particularly bad VRMs...

 

Maybe the Maximus series boards from ASUS?

Unless you're going extreme lower mid tier boards like Gaming 3 and Z97-A style things are fine.

You don't need 700 dollars though

Have you considered getting a binned CPU? You seem to want some great overclocks!

[Marcus Torre DeProspero]

Sorry for the late response, but you can get a binned chip from here.
