Is ASUS B85M-G a good choice for OC Pentium G3258?

Solution
[strike]For starters, you won't get the G3258 to 4.5Ghz on a stock cooler[/strike] Secondly, you won't be able to use that motherboard to overclock as it doesn't have any heatsinks. So the short answer is no 
Edit: Just Googled G3258 4.5Ghz overclock and it appears you can overclock it to 4.5Ghz on stock cooler, apologies. I would still recommend a motherboard with heatsinks, though.

Yes this board is just don't go crazy with it. I'm at 4.1 ghz on the B85M-G Rev.2 with the G3258 multiplier only and the voltage is unlocked too! Just remember this boards cooling solution isn't like the Z series boards so proceed with caution. Slow and steady wins this race.
