h81 itx overclocking?

[Drwilyam]

gathering parts for an itx build on pc part picker and saw that the chipset on the specific mobo im getting (an itx board from asrock) uses the h81 chipset. i'm planning on using a pentium g3258 and was wondering if h81 supports overclocking. thanks to anyone that replies!

It does not, only Z series boards do.

H81 supports overclocking. All Haswell chipsets 'unofficially' supports it.

But don't push G3258 to its limit, since H81 mobos are not that sturdy.

would a 4.0 ghz overclock be safe?

Depends on the ability of the CPU, but usually 4.0 is a piece of cake.

why a 3 year old architecture? h110/b250 and g4560 is better value

does the 4560 overclock?

no, but it has 2 extra threads, which allows it to actually RUN some games that the G3258 can't.. and with a 480 it smashes the poor 3258 into the ground

is it the same chipset? how do you think it would perform with a 1050ti?

no, it's h110/b250 for cheap boards

@Drwilyam Yes ASRock H81M-ITX is compatible with the G3258 and don't mind other user who keep saying Overclocking is not supported on H81 and go with Z87 and Z97 they don't have a clue what they are talking about.

 

You could get well over 4.2 to 4.4ghz if your voltage is under 1.300 your stock cooler should handle a peek of 68c to 72c on gaming.

 

and you should upgrade the mobo's bios to the specific were the g3258 is supported.

Can you please stop this stupidity i never said all H81 chipset i said the board he's using, you can be helpful or just useless by simple not disrupting the Topic. @deXxterlab97

 

and i just said that you should even upgrade the bios to w/ g3258 is supported.
