P67 and H67 ?? for gaming purpose with videocard

Post by diako_lorddm » Wed Mar 09, 2011 4:04 am

If i don't overclock my CPU then will P67 and h67 MB be same for gaming performance ? (core i5 2400)
I mean will H67 bottleneck Corei5 2400 CPU ?(for gaming purpose)
I know H67 can't have overclock but it can support turbo boost
PS : have a GTS250 videocard

I don't know of any reason why it would. I bought an H67 motherboard, and I'm happy so far.

H67 has stupid limit of running memory not faster than DDR3-1333.
Most kits are capable of running on much higher frequency. While previous processor models couldn't utilize the available bandwidth, Sandy Bridge can. And gaming is where it does make a difference (albeit quite small, 1-5%)
