    I've been overclocking for a while... but... E2180w/P35-DS3L

    Well that's your problem then, AFAIK if you update the bios and ensure that that DES software the board comes with isn't installed you can overclock. Here's an interesting thread: http://www.overclock.net/intel-motherboards/340935-gigabyte-ep35-ds3l-vcore-issue-read.html

    HELP:E2140 3.2 OCed but After restart it will stay on a black screen!

    More power! I have an e2160 overclocked to 3.2 on a p35-DS3L (8x400 FSB). My vCore is 1.30625. Plenty of people need over 1.4 voltage to get to 3.2. I started at 1.35, tested for stability, and dropped the voltage a notch, testing for stability each time, until I settled on that vCore. If...
