Bey, i was wondering how good is AsRock z170 Fatal1ty K4 motherboard for overclocking?
I'am planning to get this mobo and i5 6600k.

It has 10 power phase so it should do the same as either the Pro4 which has been well reviewed as capable of pushing i5k to 4.2Ghz.
Or the E3V5 Pro Gaming/OC in a Prosummer Build featured here on Toms that also has 10 power phase and was BLCK overclocking a quad-cores HT Xeon E3 from 3.4Ghz to 4.5Ghz;

And its review right here on Toms show that it can hold an i7 6700k at 4.6Ghz;
On the CPU core side, the Fatal1ty Z170 Gaming K4 is a stellar overclocker. That's where the most performance can be found, so that's where most of us focus our overclocking efforts. Though we've seen high-end boards push our CPU to 4.60 GHz at a relatively-conservative 1.30V, the Fatalt1ty Z170 Gaming K4 is the only sub-$160 model to accomplish this...

So that's your ball park if you can provide sufficient power/cooling to your CPU and your luck with the silicon lottery.
