can 1066fsb mobo overclok 1066fsb proc further??
an overclock 1066fsb proc would have higher fsb,right???

I don't know. I think 1066MHz is all it can do if it says it. Like my Micro ATX GigaByte board.

It said "FSB1333", therefore it only clocked to 3.0GHz.

It should clock higher.
And mATX are somewhat limited to overclocking.
1600/1333MHz My motherboard says that, but my current FSB is 438 and since it's quad pumped x4 = >1600.

I hope I'm doing it right.

i got 2years old gigabyte ga945gcmxs2 mobo 1066fsb..
bout to getting e7200 1066fsb..so need to know can overclock tht proc in tis mobo or not..
well, let see how it goes when get my hand on new procs..
so,finger cross then..
currently overclock pent D 2.66Ghz to 3.33Ghz in tis mobo wit stock hsf, running 24/7..

got my e7200 and try OC it, but currently got to 2.66Ghz..huhu,mehhh

but, more weird thing is, CPUz keep showing my cpu multiplier change between 9.5x and 6x..WTH is going on??
mybe cause by my old mobo???mobo gigabyte945GCMX-s2..
any idea y???

Probably just Gigabytes power saving function. When the demand is not there the voltage and multi is automatically dropped to conserve energy.

Not to familiar with that motherboard but the 945 chipset weren't very good overclockers.

It really depends on the board. Any good overclocking board will go well beyond the rated FSB.

My 750i is rated at 1066/1333 yet I am running it at 1600, and many run it at 1800.

The GA P45 UD3 boards are rated at 1333/1600 yet many get them to 1800-2000.

So you would just need to try, I am not familiar with that board, maybe do some google searches and see if you can find any info.

Just search for "motherboard model - overclocking"
