I'm newbie to overclocking, and i was hoping someone could help me out. Does anyone know the overclocking potential of this motherboard? This seems to be a good mb, but i'd like to be able to overclock a resonable amount (no water cooling or anything that extreme).
From the mb manual it looks like there is no way to raise the core voltage. Can anyone confirm this? Also isn't it possible to pensil in certain bridges on an thunderbird to set the default voltage? Then this would aleviate the problem of not being able to adjust the voltage in the bios. Is this possible?
I also read that the fsb can only be changed from 100 to 133 to 150 to 166. Those are rather large steps considering most mb are able to increase by incriments of one. Does this cause a serious problem? I will still be able to adjust the multiplier to overclock, but i will not be able to have as much control over the speed. Does this sound right?
Any help would be apreciated. Thanks in advance.
