You just should forget everything you've read at Fudzilla and TheInq about how this is done and what problems there might be. The stories about how Intel would lock overclocking through synchronized bus controllers in the CPU and northbridge, problems the synchronized voltages etc, they have just been a bunch of lies. Some of the stories haven't don't even contain a single ounce of truth or even the slightest fact from reality. Maybe in a slightly distorted dimension on another planet, but the reality is that Nehalem overclocks and considering how much trouble we had when overclocking Kentsfield and Yorkfield, Nehalem has been a lot more stable.

You are going to overclock Nehalem just like any other new system. Just a new bus and new voltages to get used. Overclocking is here to stay.

That's good to hear. Because I'm looking at the bigger picture, Overall overclocks. Bus, Multiplier, QPI, Memory, Etc. Getting every khz of power out of a rig. But as soon as the NDA is lifted, I wanna hear about the full details of the memory worries.
