Hello everyone,, So im planning to buy the i7 8700 (non K) and i was wondering which motherboard is better. Do i go for the Z370 or the H370? im not interesting on overclocking (thats why i go for the non K) but i would still like use the turbo mode the i7 8700 offers and benefit from it. Can you use the turbo mode to a H370 chipset? Any suggestions on motherboards are welcomed?? |

Yes you can use the 8700 turbo mode on a H370 and you do not have to flash the BIOS as both boards support i7-8700 series cpu from the first BIOS release. Which Z370 and which H370 are you looking at ? I have the Z370 Pro4 but choose it specifically so I can run Windows 7 if I choose, the Z370 is the last chipset that has true Win7 driver support. ------------- https://www.passmark.com/baselines/V9/display.php?id=99573335296 |
