August 20, 20214 yr Hello, I've started planning a build around an Intel i5-2500K CPU, simply because it seems like a safe quad-core to go with. So I've been going through info for compatible motherboards (Intel sandy bridge) and basically it comes down to the H67 vs. P67 chipsets. From wh 192.168.1.254 at I understand, the P67 requires a video card but the H67 just uses the integrated video processor in the i5-2500K. Also, I hear the P67 is much better for overclocking/th can't usually do it at all. Overclocking has been something I've been struggling to understand, so I don't know if this is something that should even affect my selections. 10.0.0.0.1 Q1: For gaming, is it recommended that I buy one extra graphics/video card anyways, if I go with the H67? Q2: What are the advantages/disadvantages of the H67 vs. P67 that I missed? Recommendations? Q3: What's the hubbub about this overclocking business? Edited August 24, 20214 yr by hilksbles73
