I never oc my pc before, so i am very noob and wanna ask few question about oc my new e4500, hope anyone teach me...
My Question as below...

1. I am planning to buy Asus P5KPL, is this mobo good enough for oc? (This is my highest budget mobo) or any other cheaper board recommended? (Budget Rm290)
2. If i oc my processor, can i run it 24/7, or i must turn off after sometimes?
3. How fast will e4500 go with default vcore? will it reach &remain stable at 3Ghz with default vcore?
4. Do i have to get a real-power psu for 3Ghz? can normal 500w psu come with case do the job?


Thx for the help!!

u can refer to overclock guide thread..

1.im dunno about the mobo abality for oc..myb other that use it can tell u
2.it depend on ur setting n rig spec wether i can support u to run 24/7 or not..
3.erm oc if luck n skill bro..cant simply say i want at dis clock with stock vcore then u can hv it..u need to tweak it..if u got luck n skill u mite can hv it
4.erm for this im suggest using true power psu

1.Abit IP35 e.. the best board under rm300
2.You can run it like server if u want but all depends on your cooling and maintenance
3.Depends on your motherboard strapping, if its p35 chip, then its 333*(whatever multiplier it is) on Vcore
4.Get a psu with the highest rated 12V rails and efficiency.

And for more info, post this thread in Hardware QnA. Cheers

Thx!!!
May be go to IP35 if kuching price < 300

your welcome david.. Make sure its IP35-e

Ooo... No wonder i go search for price and all IP35 about 500+
Really shock for a moment... lol... thx..

Is IP35-E have the same overclock ability with IP35?

yes it does only that the :e: version doesnt have Raid function and 1394 port.. and also a heatpipe cooling for its NB.. but yes the OC ability is awesome. very nice for its price
