    Hi,

    I have not been able to get a definitive anwser on this. I know the 2.8ghz is o/c able to 3.4ghz from the BIOS. Can the CORE 2 DUO T8300(2.4GHZ) be overclocked from the BIOS? if not what could it be overclocked to with third party software? I have heard of Clockgen

    Thanks alot,

    Kyle

    Simply, no. The only processor you can OC via the BIOS is the X7900 and the X9000 extreme processors.

    I'm not sure on third party software - my guess is no.
