Don't know if ECS is getting any better now prior to my past (very ugly) experiences with (almost all) ECS motherboards in someone else's computers and their almost non-existent tech support (didn't received not a single response from their tech support). And yes, their older mobos were very poor in therms of OC and new BIOS releases. If nothing has changed DRAMATICALLY I wouldn't touch their mobos not even with a 10 foot pole.

"...the ultimate OC performance..."
Yeah right, just look at that poor CPU's VRM section. Put some i5/i7-4xxxK and do some OC beyond 4GHz and you can expect

It's specifically designed for the Pentium G3258 processor as the article suggests. It doesn't say it's any good with the i7-4790K.
At least it accomplishes 4.7 GHz which no other Haswell Refresh based processors can reach, and at only 1.448 V!

Looks like it should have a P133 in it
