So i recently built my first pc and was not satisfied with my CPU performance, originally i had a i5-4440 but after playing some bf4 i found that it was just not cutting it so i just bought a 4670k on price match for 189.99 and a h100i for cooling (overkill i know). My question is as i now have more then adequate cooling how well does the h81m-hds fair when overclocking? i would hate to over do it and burn it out after a week.

You may oc but just like the asrock said : " Please realize that there is a certain risk involved with overclocking, including adjusting the setting in the BIOS or using the third-party overclocking tools. Overclocking may affect your system stability, or even cause damage to the components and devices of your system. It should be done at your own risk and expense. We are not responsible for possible damage caused by overclocking. " Because the h81 does not design for ocing, if you want to oc the i5-4670K you should get the Z97 or Z87 for the K version cpu. And the Z97 is better for oc too.
