Can I overclock my CPU with this board?

[Guest]

I am going to get an Intel Pentium G3258 and an MSI H81M-E33 motherboard, but I want to overclock the cpu since it is unlocked. Can I get from 3.2 to a stable 4.2 GHZ without touching the voltage?

this Board supports OC Genie 4 so yes you will be able to OC but how much is up to the luck of the draw, just google what people have been reaching with this CPU but I would guestimate that 4.0 should be be achievable. How are you cooling it?

Probably not.

ok, I´m more familiar with the higher end CPUs but you should be able to get a nice ~4GHz on this
