Overclocking

Despite being a bit more in the middle of the Z490 price range the Carbon loses nothing in the overclocking prowess stakes, being as capable as the other motherboards we’ve reviewed so far. It’s also worth noting that the BIOS is excellent, being clear and easy to use with none of the faffing about that can occur on more obfuscated offerings.
