Is this board meant to have the option of changing the vCore of the cpu? I can't find it anywhere in the BIOS, and i think at an extra +0.05v this Celeron D could do 3.6 (tops out at 3.45 on current stock vCore)

Could anyone enlighten me as to how i could change it? Or recommend a BIOS update that will allow the option?

Thanks in advance guys/gals.
 
I've fitted heaps of those motherboards to replace dead
mb's in numerous systems, the most recent I had 3 (with Asrock mb's)
to fix at work that had died because the Prescotts on them had a
carpet of dust on the heatsinks and had (I think)
killed the voltage control Ic on the boards due to
extreme heat/Current drain.
To get to the point I do not remember seeing a vcore
adjust in the bios of any revisions of these boards ,
including the older ones without SATA.
Basically these are simple boards used mainly to replace
boards from dead compaqs, dells, and other basic systems
people usually use as business machines.
You'd think as Asus went to the point of putting basic
overclocking features in they would have also added
vcore adjust, but as they say, "Thems the brakes".
 
Ah, i guess that spells the end for overclocking on this board... Well, stably at least.

Thanks for the heads-up though :)
