Overclocking???

[MatthewF01]

I was told there was a way to get my B85M Gaming(Mirco-Atx) to overclock a pentium g3258( 20th aniiverery) but the bois seems to be locked

[MatthewF01]

i'm sure you'll need a custom janky BIOS to do it.

you need a z170 for overclock 

[MatthewF01]

The Pentium Anniversary is LGA 1150 and OC's on non-Z boards. H97 is his best bet.

[MatthewF01]

thats what i though but im out of money to buy a new board otherwise i would go ahead and get a z97 board

i was thinking more about the quality, H97 would be the next best thing.

unforantly the b85m Gaming(Mirco ATX which apperntly matters) no costom bois's are there

[MatthewF01]

ahh okay

[MatthewF01]

would it be better for me to buy a mobo for myg3258 or a i7-2600k (I found one for really cheap so i grabbed it at a local pawnshop without thinking about the socket)

[MatthewF01]

i feel like msi falsly advertises this board as i am looking at msi's product page
