Would love to know if overclocking the IGP of the 2500k can hold similer result as the overclocking the IGP of 2600k?

2500k oc IGP vs 2600k oc IGP

Best of luck
 
If I understand the situation correctly, I don't believe that the "k" models have IGP. The 2500 and 2600 (without the k) have IGP. That's probably what you meant anyway.
 
Actually the 2600K has a better IGP than the 2600. It's just that the P67 chipset boards (which allow overcloking the processor) don't support IGP. H67 supports IGP and IGP overclocking, but not processor overclocking. It's really wacky what they've done.
 
Hopefully some one will be able to change the multiplier in those H67 motherboard, then we will be having access to both IGP & Overclocking CPU.

We need some one to test it in H67 motherboard, as I have understand the I5 2500 / I5 2600 none k model will allow overclocking of 4 steps by raising the multiplier.

So, it's either faster processing (P67) or integrated graphics (H67).....take your pick. It seems like Intel is playing games with its customers. I assume that since the graphics is integrated with the processor that overclocking the cpu would also overclock the gpu....and the gpu can't handle the overclocking. Am I right?

the GPU can handle the overclocking but only in supported H67 motherboards,
P67 motherboards doesn’t utilize the GPU.

So far you can use the built-in GPU only in H67 motherboard (you can overclock GPU but not CPU)
while in P67 you can overclock the CPU but you doesn’t have access to the GPU

Not so.

All i5s (including the Ks) include the IGP; however , no i7s include the IGP (which is why no i7-K + H67).

The P67 supports both i5 and i7 (non-K and K); however, the H67 only supports i5s.

Other diffs:

1. i5s are all quad-cores and include the IGP, but none (including the 2500K) support HT.
2. No i7 supports integrated graphics (therefore, i7+H67=non-starter); however, the i7-2600K supports HT.
3. Discrete graphics and H67: Discrete graphics is not roadblocked in any way/shape/form by H67 any more than it was by previous Intel IGPs; if anything, it's roadblocked even less. For the first time, multi-GPU technology and Intel IGP are not just in the same sentence, but on the same motherboard - the ASUS P8H67 EVO supports QuadCrossFireX or SLI, and is mATX to boot.

sorry but i have to disagree with what i had bolded with supporting links

as you can see newegg lists it as being i7 compatable and intels site says nothing about it NOT being compatable
