if you are overclocking, then 8 + 4 if you are not OC'ing then 4 + 2

Error 709: Walrus on the road!

Either one will allow you to OC like a mother fucker honestly. My msi z77 g45 has a 3+3 power phase and I'm at 4.3Ghz with 1.174v and I could go even lower on the voltages because I have a decent chip. The world record holding boards from Asus only had a 8 phase design in them so either one will allow you to OC wayyyy past what you are going to. And if you don't plan on overclocking then either one will provide solid, clean power to your cpu.

I won't go into the actual circuitry of it because I'm not an electrical engineer so I won't be able to explain it but it is the amount of phases the electricity from your psu to get to your cpu. Every "phase" will "refine" the electricity even more so that your cpu gets the most quality power it can get. The most Important things for power phases is the quality and not quantity, so manufactures like MSI and Asus have the best quality and then Gigabyte just barely behind them and Asrock and others even further behind.
