motherboard phases and bios

[acepro71]

currently i have a 4+ 1 phase motherboard and i am running 8350 on it  

it runs great my question is does changing to a higher phase motherboard increases performance ?>

 

cause i think it only controls voltage so it will only be useful if i overclock am i wrong ? 

 

 

and what bios is better normal or uefi for non touch monitors  ?

Having a better motherboard means that you will be able to achieve better and more stable overclocks because the voltage is distrusted to more phases. UEFI because you can use your mouse and keyboard to navigate around the bios instead of just using the keyboard. If you want to get a better motherboard, I would get the ASUS M5A99FX PRO R2.0.

what if i am not overclocking is this motherboard fine then ?

Yeah if you aren't doing any overclocking the motherboard that you are currently using will be fine.

so the only question remains phases does not decrease power of ram or cpu right cause what if they do not get enough voltage?

If you aren't going to overclock, the voltages for your cpu and ram will be fine. You would need more power phases when you are overclocking because you would most likely need to increase the stock voltages in order to handle the voltages.

ok thanks a lot does voltages increase as well only for ram  like from 1300 to 1600 mhz ? 

 

as i have an external gpu i do not think overclocking it would fuk voltage what do u think as it is an external gpu

If you are overclocking your ram from 1300 to 1600mhz, you most likely wouldn't have to increase voltage (maybe a bit but not much). If you increase your voltage for your ram, you would have a lower clock for your cpu because you supplied the voltage to the ram (I might be wrong about this). The voltage on the gpu is provided by the psu so it doesn't relate to the motherboard.

Mine has 4+2 phases. It doesn't hold any voltages without considerable vdroop above 1.45v. More phases is stable voltages. At 1.5v in BIOS it drops to 1.40 under load. At 1.42v in bios it drops to 1.40v under load. My 8350 can't recieve stable 1.45v under load at any setting in BIOS, not even 1.55v.

thanks a bunch to both of u for helping me
