The board also has Dual Intelligent Processors with DIGI+ VRM support. As with many of the higher end ASUS motherboards it has 12 phase power for the processor and 4 phase power for iGPU. Today we plan on testing the board in an overclocked state. There was no problem achieving a 4.8ghz overclock with the P8Z68-V Pro Gen 3 and Core i7 2600k processor but we have done this before with many other motherboards.
Today we decided to test the ‘OC Tuner’ option. This automatically configures the board and processor to a ‘safe’ overclocked setting. The board restarted a few times and it ended up with the settings above (4.43ghz – 103mhz bus speed). As we are using expensive Kingston 2400mhz rated QUAD Channel memory, we increased the memory multipler to 2,200mhz.
The Asus P8Z68-V Pro Gen 3 Motherboard has impressed us during extensive testing over the last week. I really do rate the ASUS UEFI interface as the best on the market, it is extremely intuitive to navigate and offers a wide variety of voltage and timings to squeeze out every last ounce of performance.
