Not sure whether this is a mobo question or OC question......
I'm eyeing ASR Extreme 4 cause it has better features than ASUS for same price level.
I've only gotten 1 data point on the overclockability of the board with SandyBridge vs Asus. On Anandtech 1 guy said he couldn't get past 4.4ghz and wondered whether it might be the power of the mobo.
I'm wondering if anyone else is rocking the ASRock and what other data points we're seeing this board be able to deliver? Just trying to figure out if indeed there is any real difference in the ASRock's OC ability vs ASUS. If they can both OC the same, then I'll take that factor off the table and decide based on price, features, warranty, reputation. Also I've seen a lot of b^tching about the ASUS boards having boot problems right now....maybe its something that can be fixed but its making me hesitate right now whether the "legendary" status for Asus is to be valued or not.
