    So the i915P that my Asus P4GD1 mobo has, DOES have the PCI-E lock and it will for example allow an FSB setting of lets say 300MHz without that the PCI-E will run out of specifications?

    For 300fsb you need to set PCI-E freq to 135 or more. Expect Sata ports and lan not working though. Also you need more chipset volts, probably voltmod to 1.8-2V

    Didn't the i945 also suffer from the same problems as the i915. Afaik it did. So you must go for i955 or i975 for serious OC'ing...
