SFF PC's and Overclocking

[benutne]

I swear the HardForums is fullof nothing but n00bs and people who dont give a crap.

I know thats not what these things are made for, but could I take a shuttle P4 model with say a i865 or i875 chipset and get a 2.8C (non Prescott) to 3.5GHz or so in one? With the right memory and such of course. I imagine heat would be an issue

heat and the psu would be the primary problem. it's highly unlikely you can get the cpu to 3.5ghz unless you can possibly do that somehow without increasing the voltage. still, running it faster then stock will greatly increase the system temp and it'll overload.

so the answer is: yes, it's overclockable. but no, you wont succeed without some extreme modding.
