Hi there,
I have an lntel system in pieces that I'm looking to reassemble, which will be based around the Supermicro PDSG4 motherboard (one of the parts I already own - PCI-X, PCI and PCIe slots on one board).
Here's a shot of the meagre overclocking options:
I have been offered an engineering sample of the 3.4GHz 950 chip for around £130. Am I right in thinking that being an engineering sample, the CPU has its multiplier unlocked, and that I can use the Clock Ratio option to crank it up?
If so, what sort of performance on air can I expect and what cooler should I purchase?
