This mod has yet to be confirmed to work, but from what was said at Quakecon here in Texas this weekend by an Intel marketing rep who was demonstrating the overclocking of Intels X6800. It is possible to unlock the multiplier upwards of any Conroe Core 2 Duo, using intels 975BX motherboard by soldering or using conductive paint on a solder point located on the motherboard. I do not own an Intel system but after this I just have to try. The jumper to connect is J8J4 marked MFG and is located between the Black serial ata ports, just to the right of a fan header. Anyone owning this board with locked conroe's may want to try this. I will post results after I pick up a system later this week.
Incidently, my game pc won Dells 3DMark06 contest landing me a Dell 24" LCD. I overclocked my 7900GT's to 695 core 825 memory and scored 10151 in 3DMark06. This is not a the highest score we've seen, but its the highest @ the event & I'm happy.
