    Wonder if you can fry the IGP and than have the cpu core etc still usable
    Sometimes a good slap in the face is all you need

    The memory controller is on the same 45nm die as the IGP.

    i5 670 just arrived, now waiting on the GA-H55M-USB3 from Newegg. Budget board overclocking will be so fun
