I was aiming for a 3,4GHz (400MHz FSB) overclock but now I don't think it'd be easily achieved with this motherboard and a 45nm quad-core.


Should I go for it nonetheless?

I 've got a P5B Deluxe Wifi-AP (bios 1238)
- 2*1024mb Geil Ultra Pc6400 C4
- 2*1024Mb Corsair TwinX XMS2 PC6400 C4
- Intel Q9650

With this motherboard and cpu I obtained the following o/c very easily :

- 9*433MHz
