880g chipset with phenom ii x4 965 BE

[TheEscapist]

Hi guys

I was wondering if the 880g chipset is good for overclocking. If it can, can it get a phenom ii x4 965 BE to 4ghz?

Thanks

Its three of the ones on newegg. These are the names : ASrock 880gm-le, BIOSTAR A880GZ, msi-880GMS. Are one of those three good enough? Im not looking for crossfire any time soon so microATX is okay. Theyre all mATX

Ok cool. Im getting a cm 212 plus. Will it get it to 4?

Isnt 1.5 a bit too high?

No, it isn't.

Check this guide, it is all in there, that is needed to know. It applies to your CPU.
