Hi all,

I purchased this motherboard few days ago. Actually a bought the new cpu, video card and case. Since I don't have any experience in overclocking I just wanted to ask you people what is the best configuration for this motherboard regarding overclocking (clock of the cpu, voltage etc). Cpu is dual core E5200 2,5 Ghz,video card Nvidia 9500 512 MB and 2 gig of RAM.

The easiest way is to bump up the FSB and the multiplier in the bios. If the OC becomes unstable, you can slowly increase the cpu voltage. That is a decent OC'ng board and real good OC'ng cpu. You should get some good results.

Unfortunately due to all of the different variables involved with overclocking (such as ambient temps, hardware, cooling, VID, etc) there is no surefire way to give you good settings for your overclock.

Due to all the variables, what works for others might be unstable or too hot for you. If you want some more information about how to safely overclock your cpu, check out this sticky:

Good luck!
