I have a Biostar TH67XE which has been brilliant during the time i've owned it
. I recently installed a new i5 3570K (after donating my old i5 2500 to my girlfriends new rig) and have just noticed some interesting OC options in my bios (which probably appeared after the latest update). If i enable 'Fixed CPU Ratio' then it gives me the option to manually adjust the CPU Ratio (multiplier) and i can even adjust the FSB! I've not actually tried doing anything yet as my Arctic Freezer 7 Pro Rev 2 is probably not upto the task... And i don't know if it's safe? I always found it strange how this H67 based board has a 7 phase power design with heatsinked mosfets (as H67's are not meant for overclocking and are usually 4 or 5 phase for m-atx boards
).
Does anyone know if other manufacturers have found ways to enable overclocking on H67 boards? I find this very interesting and great if it actually works (otherwise why would they include the options in the bios?).
