The testing seems to indicate the oc is slightly more Overclock capable, but I am at a lose as to why..
These boards are almost identical in the specs from GB, and the oc has some gold plating on the mem slots...
the retail pricing is close but hte 4h is almost 100 off now in a bundle at Micro center..
Can someone explain why the OC with the same caps blocks etc... per several reviews..referenced through the fine services here, gets a better ie faster with less juice cpu oc?
I am at a loss how gold plating the mem slots would change the cpu OC limit for a given volts...
thanks
It may be there is more to the OC than Gigabyte folks are telling us???
