We review and test the small yet agile Gigabyte Z370N WIFI motherboard, this Mini ITX Form Factor based measures just 17x17cm, yet is as fast as its bigger bethrens. We'll pair it with the new six-core Core i7 8700K. Will it perform as fast as the more expensive SKUs? Well, heck yeah.

What is the advised maximum operating temperature for these chips? Still at or close to 72 Celsius core temp? If so the overclock isn't usable for 24/7 usage. At what speed will it not get to hot with a decent heatsink+fan combo and with liquid?

Since Intel moved to goo in between CPU and heatspreader, almost no CPU can stay within that.
So, everyone OCes to temperature they are comfortable with.

Will the on-board audio be able to decently power my 80 Ohm headphones? I see it has no slot for my sound card.
