Where did you find this ? Asrock E3v5 has External Clock Generator , you can't simply remove it by using software or even with Intel Micro-code update
Youtuber @Science Studio stated that you can no longer overclock non-k CPU but this mobo is completely a different story Jeff Kampman @ Techreport Wrote:ASRock just won't do what Intel tells it to. The company may have issued BIOS updates that removed its SkyOC base-clock (or BCLK) overclocking features from many of its motherboards, but it's not abandoning the locked-CPU overclocking dream just yet. This time around, the company is taking the battle to the hardware.External Clock Generator is hardware , you know Laptop: Youtube Channel (Vintage Tech/Watches) :: 07-04-2016, 09:59 PM

It's only really an issue if you actually want a genuine 4K display, which is unlikely.

Idk .The Sky OC was removed on 18 Mar 2016 and his tutorial video was made on 24 May 2016 , he bought this mobo to replace his impotent Asus board (non-K OC disabled by Intel micro code)
I still have no idea if this sky OC function has anything to do with External Clock Generator (a chip) Well , this Xeon + E3V5 is still not a bad deal if you want i7 performance while paying the same amount of money as i5 6600K . In the past , we could pair Xeon 1230v3 (i7 4770 Haswell) with an ultra cheap H81 mobo like any i3/i5/i7 Haswell could . I don't know why Intel would change chipset now Laptop: Youtube Channel (Vintage Tech/Watches) :: 07-05-2016, 02:10 AM

That GTX 960 will probably turn into a GTX 970, am I going to be pushing it on wattage? 07-14-2016, 06:32 AM

Weird choice getting a 960 instead of a 480, IMO. Theoretically, even for Linux, it should be significantly faster.
