hey
I'm looking to match my intel pentium G3258 with a m-atx mobo to overclock it to an playable level for dolphin, what should i look for? I play the most common wii games such as the mario franchise, kirby & xenoblade etcetc. I don't aim on having the absolute best quality hence the g3258, but i want to get a smooth experience with decent qual.
My budget is also around 60-80$.
I've looked at these motherboards but still not sure which one would be best:
G3258 said to be overclocked to 4.2 GHz at 1.24 volts with the ASUS H81M-PLUS (72.7$)
G3258 said to be overclocked to 4.6 GHz at 1.3 volts with the ASUS H81M-C (72$)
G3258 said to be overclocked to 4.5 Ghz at 1.3 volts with the ASRock H81M-HDS (70.9$)
G3258 said to be overclocked to 4.3 Ghz at 1.15 volts with the ASUS H81M-D (74.4$)
No clue which one to go for, if even one of these. I'm not very well informed on overclocking in general but i thought id try asking here since i'm using the computer for 99% for dolphin.
- ask away if i missed anything
thanks in advance
EDIT: My spec excluding the cpu/mobo is -
GPU: EVGA GeForce GTX 1050
PSU: Deltaco PSU-420 (350W) - (going to replace with 400W)
RAM: 2x Corsair 4GB CL9 1600Mhz
CASE: Fractal Design Core 1000
CPU-FAN: Noctua NH-U9B SE2
