how is it for overclocking

I have not over clocked mine, but it is a dual bios, one of the bios you can not change, the other you can mess with it all you want. So if you tweak it too much and do some setting that makes it not want to work, you flip a switch on the card to the factory bios and your back in action.

It helps if you're doing any significant overclocking. I run mine at 1.1GHz and some high voltage level that I don't remember offhand, and without heatsinks I couldn't do that with stability.Even at lower clock speeds, the 10-20 celsius difference can make you "feel" better, although I don't know how much of a realistic difference it will make in terms of functionality and useful lifetime.

Well. It all depends on whether you will overclock thr CPU or not.....IMO it will work as is however it may not be efficient for I7.

I try overclocking yet. And the cooling system is great because it has extra functionality that allows you to turn on more powerful coolers.

GPU clock: 823Mhz Memory:1002Mhz Shader: 1645Mhz. can OC to 924 stable with stock fan.If you want to buy I'll offer it for $90 since I'll be upgrading soon.

its decent for it. its got integrated graphics which kinda sucks, but itll play things like skyrim on low settings, if you want to use that as a benchmark. i havent noticed any overheating problem. i personally use it for gaming as im a twitch streamer and this is my main rig atm.i havent really tried newer games on it as much. it has slowdown with dolphin (gamecube/wii emulator) but runs things like Skullgirls no problem.

I wouldn't suggest overclocking with the stock heatsink I've always read that it is unsafe. You void warranty by overclocking so I personally wouldn't risk it.

The memory design is very good. It support 16G x 16 memory. The ram is ECC. But this board is for server. I know it cannot be overclocking.

Ya, i have that and it goes very fast without overocking. If i did overclock it would be even faster!

Depends on if you're OC or not... I'm using a Zalman 9700 and clocking @ 4Ghz and it does a great job. It's a rather large fan, so you'll need room in your case for it.

It worked great for me. And I'm not overclocking. Under heavy load mine goes to 54c.

Yes. I used this in my build and haven't started tweaking any of the settings or messing with oc yet and it works great.

yeah, definately good enough... i overclocked to 4.5ghz with the stock cooler.

To the best of my knowlesdge, yes. It can be overclocked. I have not done this because running stock is fine for what I do. Just make sure you take into account the extrea cooling required...

I play Battlefield 4 and Guild Wars 2. Both keep a smooth steady 60fps. It would probably be higher if my system was a little beefier. I have an AMD940 with ddr2 ram. I don't overclock, and it always stays a tad below 70c under load. My machine gets a little loud when everything is running at full speed, but Im not sure if I can hear the GPU fan above the power supply and CPU fan which will speed up under load. I think its a great card for the money.

While I don't overclock I've heard good things about ASUS boards in general when it comes to Overclocking. I Also have an FX8350 but see no need to OC it. As for a GTX780 SC I don't see why there would be a problem with placing an NVIDIA Card on this board. People do it all the time.
