Hi all,

This board in question:
https://pg.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z890I Nova WiFi/index.us.asp#Overview

Does the asrock z890i nova wifi (itx) with it's 12+1+1+1+1 Power Phase Design and 110A SPS suitable to overclock a 285k without worry for the VRM etc not doing massive OC but perhaps 5.0ghz on the E-cores and maybe even more, also a slight OC on the P-cores. Is this board good enough without worry or should i look elsewhere ?

What about the asrock PHANTOM GAMING Z890M Riptide:
https://pg.asrock.com/mb/Intel/Z890M Riptide WiFi/index.us.asp
With it's 16+1+1+1+1 Power Phase Design but with 80A SPS?
Which of these 2 boards is THE better overclocker for 285k not doing massive overclock just a decent OC.
Reason im using a Lian Li A3 matx case will use either a good AIO cpu cooler or do a full custom water cooling setup with Aquacomputer Cuplex Vision cpu block and AC AMS 480 rad.

Feedback/help/advise is appreciated
Thx in advance

1. Don't OC the P-cores, they're tortured enough as it is.
2. No idea what you're doing here but if it's gaming I'd recommend ditching LGA1851 altogether as both LGA1700 and AM5 do it better.
3. 12*110 is slightly better than 16*80. On paper at least.
4. Both boards will warrant some overclock on E-cores but both also won't do any wonders in that department. Don't expect anything more than +200 MHz, could just run it at stock.
