So far I have not done any over clocking that did not involve using a utility tool. One of the mobo's I may play with just for fun is an Asus p5pe-vm, which offers less than nothing in the bios. I've seen in several diferent places (including [H]ere) where the contacts on the back of the cpu are jumped. Using this example http://sg.vr-zone.com/articles/Pin_Mod_LGA_CPUs_for_Voltage_Boost/3931-2.html would I be interpreting it correctly that the green would indicate the contact being insolated and the red being jumped?
