Assume for the moment that I have an Intel Core i5 3570k and a Cooler Master Hyper 212 EVO.
Question: If I wish to OC to 4.0 ghz (4.2 ghz MAX), what Motherboard power phase design is "good enough?"
Please don't list specific motherboards. I'm just trying to wrap my head around this. I did read that OCing the 3570k is limited by temperature which is why I included a CPU cooler. If I need to include something else, please say so.
