For real!? am actually planning to use it to OC an E5200 to 3.75GHz (12.5x280) or at least 3.5GHz (12.5x300)...can it do? wif dis board can it do dat?

Btw...if d cpu managed to hit 3.5...will it bottleneck a GTS 250 or HD 4850?

For E5200 OC, Gigabyte EP31 is good enough already..........on E6300 I managed to get 500 FSB OC (7 X 500) = 3500Mhz. E5200 can go up to 3.9GHz on this board but require too much voltage.......... sad.gif sad.gif sad.gif

WoW!...thnx for d feedback guys...actually I've got a fren who has his rig setup as:

E5200 M0 Revision
G31-ES2L
KVR 667

His 1 can only hit 3.375 (12.5x270) DRAM:FSB is 1:1...& this is not a fully stable setup oso...will experience blue screen after an hour or so in windows...Altimi...mind to share wat voltage u're playing wif at 3.57GHz?

My motherboard is EP31-DS3L not G31......E5200 Intel Burn test Stable at 3.57GHz (340 x 10.5) @ 1.28V, 2GB Supertalent 800Mhz CL5 @ 1020MHz 5-5-5-15

Err..still..the bottleneck question? 4850 or gts 250? will bottleneck wif e5200 at 3.5 or not? thnx guys


Depends on details and resolution la..........if you're playing at high res & details i think the bottleneck is more on GPU side........
