Will I be able to OC an E4300 to 266FSB with an Asus P5PL2 945pl chipset mobo?

I'm very curious about this because my mobo just received a bios update that will now allow me to run an E4300. I'm using 2GB of DDR2-533, so I imagine that I should have no problems.

Has anyone had any experience with OC a core 2 duo on a 945 chipset before? If so what's the head room?


Also, I'm currently running an intel 560 3.6GHZ cpu with HT. Windows already has the Multiprocessor HAL installed for it, should I be able to just drop this E4300 in and everything will run fine without having to reroll windows?

p5pl2 doesnt supposed core 2. p5pl2-e does support them. 1066 should work fine, even 945g can support 1066 bus.

My P5PL2 has recently recieved a bios update 1301, which now supports the E4300. http://support.asus.com/download/download.aspx?SLanguage=en-us&model=P5PL2

And it does support all C2D, but only officially at 800fsb.
