Overclocking

— high-performance boards with advanced overclocking tools — improving system performance by fine-tuning individual components (mainly by increasing the clock frequencies used by these components).

On most conventional (non-overclocker) motherboards, this setup involves considerable complexity and risk, it is usually an undocumented feature and is not covered by the warranty. However, in this case, the situation is the opposite: boards "for overclocking" are called so because the possibility of overclocking was originally incorporated in them by the manufacturer. One of the most noticeable features of such models is the presence in the firmware (BIOS) of special software tools for overclocking management, which makes overclocking as safe as possible and affordable even for inexperienced users. Another feature is improved compatibility with built-in overclocking tools provided in advanced processors, RAM modules, etc. Anyway, this particular type of board will be the best choice for those who want to build a fairly powerful PC with the ability to experiment in terms of performance.

Note that some solutions from this category are initially positioned as gaming even by the manufacturer. However, if such a board provides advanced overclocking capabilities, it is considered overclocker in our catalog (although it also applies to gaming; see "gaming" for more details).
