Solve : Can i overclock CPU in this motherboard? |

Answer» http://www.cplonline.com.au/asus-h97-pro-lga1150-atx-gaming-motherboard.html I'm unsure what to look for with overclocking it has other features needed. No, to overclock on Intel you need two things:
Be sure not to overlook the motherboard needed to tap into the unlocked processor. I have seen some people before buy unlocked processors and then they cant overclock them because the motherboard lacks the features to do so. In REGARDS to: Quote No, to overclock on Intel you need two things: I am curious as to if you would only need the motherboard with the ability to overclock to get some overclock out of a non-unlocked CPU for Intel via a FSB overclock alone with fixed multiplier ETC? I myself have been able to overclock "locked AMD CPU's" via overclocking my FSB, in which the CPU has a fixed multiplier, and I have been able to gain up to 12% overclock on AMD systems and they run healthy but warmer. I haven't tried this with Intel as for I don't have any motherboards on my Intel systems that support overclocking to see if it can be overclocked by boosting the FSB alone... The best combination is a motherboard and cpu that were both intended for overclocking. The "new" Intel CPUs, from Sandy Bridge and later, cannot be overclocked by adjusting the FSB, or base clock (BCLK). That's why you need a K series CPU as they have an unlocked multiplier, and you need a Z series motherboard because only they can change the CPU's multiplier. If we were TALKING about anything prior to Sandy Bridge, like an X58 Nehalem or Gulftown system, then the BCLK on those could be adjusted with ease to overclock, and the "Extreme EDITION" CPUs ALSO sported an unlocked multiplier for further tweaking. Those days are gone and look unlikely to return. |
