Hello gurus,
I'm starting the process of overclocking my Wolfdale and am printing out the first dozen pages of the sticky guide as my instructions. This guide is not exactly current and I'm wondering if there is anything I should know concerning my specific OC project?
I'd like to get things up to at least 3.5 MHz and from what I've read this shouldn't be a problem.
I've changed the title of this thread to more accurately describe the problem I'm encountering with my overclock project. As it stands now I am somewhat befuddled by a series of threads I have read describing difficulty making these two components work together for an overclock. I've also seen benchmarks of people getting 4.0 GHz with this CPU/mobo setup, and I would be happy with just 3.6 GHz.
There appears to an issue of not being able to get a 1:1 FSB/DRAM ratio with this particular mother board, though there appears to be some way to fix this by either using DDR2 1066 RAM or introducing "mods" to the project.
Can anyone shed some light on this?
Thanks in advance.
