It’s an alright board. But keep in mind that as a beginner overclocker you want to make only small overclocks and experiment. You don’t need a monster board unless you know how to overclock and you really want to go faster. This board will serve you well.
Any intel chipset is normally good. The P35’s were good overclockers so the P45’s will follow suit.
Thanks for the reply guys. I bought it and cant wait for it to come. Probably gonna be here by Wednesday.
I got this tutorial on overclocking but seems a bit out of date. Anyone know of a more up to date one?http://www.helpoverclocking.com/english/preparativos.htm
sorry mate..dny more tuts..dont know of another tut….hope you can figure it out ez, because it does not seem like it would be all that hard to do mate….even though the most i do is just add more hardrive space…ram…and graphics cards…but still..
I think Ill be able to figure it out I just built a computer from scratch for gaming which is the reason I wanna learn to overclock. E8400, 4GB G.Skill DDR2 1000 (PC2 8000), MSI 9800GTX+
just got a GA-EP43-DS3L today with a E8500 and using 1066MHz ram (PC-8500)
just started playing with the memory timings and will fool with the FSB after that
if the EP45 is the same then there’s timing settings up the ying-yang

I’ll be here if you want to do a lil back & forth
and be sure to flash your bios straight away to be sure you have the latest
That is a good motherboard IMO.. Just beware of the margins wherein you’ll overclock your pc!
