i3 530 + Giga H55-UD3H on air

[Mad222]

I Just got this chip & MB yesterday. The retail price is around USD125 for i3 530 here in HK & not sure about the MB.

Disabled the onboard VGA, I started to oc with care as people said this baby is fragile. 32nm makes a remarkable difference in Temp. When I hitted 4.6G @ 1.44v, the Temp. was just about some 30c. It's quite a good imrpovement as compared to the old 45nm.

The mb was easy to handle with. I thought this small MB could not do much in OC, but it surprised me though.... low volt !
