Overclocking

ASUS have never exactly been poor when it comes to overclocking, and their Z170 range is amongst the very best on the market. The Formula continues the, ahem, formula by providing fantastically easy overclocking thanks to the always friendly UEFI, with results that bear fruit in benchmark scores almost immediately. For our overclocking benchmarks today we’ve got the Formula pushing our i7-6700K to 4.8GHz with 3600MHz DDR4, take note of the 200MHz base clock here boys and girls. Should be good.
