It's been a while since I've shopped for a decent motherboard. It seems to me there are more power phases on the AM4 line than I remember seeing on FM2+ and AM3+
Do the Ryzen chips need more phases for even moderate overclocking? or do we really even know yet?
they vary from 6 to 10 phases on the B350 range if my info is correct.
If all I want to do is lock a 1700 at 3.5 or 3.7Ghz would I necessarily need to get one of the 10 phase models or would the 6 phase work just fine?
