B beil Honorable Jul 1, 2013 38 0 10,540 Jul 4, 2013 #1 Hello. I noticed that even cheaper marathon PC's use motherboards with Z75/Z77 chipsets instead of cheaper H61. Does using Z75/Z77 affect performance in any way, or it used for other reasons (i.e. overclocking, USB 3 support, etc)?

Solution T T thasan1 Jul 4, 2013 no it does not effect performance, they only use it for OC support, and with H61 mobo's your gonna need a bios update for IVyb CPU's.
