appearently intel integrated an overclocking prevention mechanism in both chipsets that detect an overclocking attempt and make the system crash when the desired frequency is 10% above the default clockspeed!

asus abit and gigabyte claim to have found a way to trick the lock, but say their boards are still limited to a max oc of 15-20%!

This means we will only be able to run DDR-II in sync. DDR-II 533 and 667 will have to be run in async as the fsb is locked to a maximum speed of 240mhz (20% oc) or even less!
