Well this thread would go either in the intel cpu section or in the intel mobo section, but anyway what your going to have to look for is a way to increase your fsb, but your oc can be limited to a couple of things, speed of your ram, cooling and core of the cpu, but eventually you'll understand this. I bet there is a sticky around here in the forums somewhere after this is an ocing forum, cause its late and I can't write a whole guide on this, I'm gonna go look for that sticky and after your done reading you can ask any question here. Also to have the thread moved your going to have to contact a mod.

here is your link: http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?t=263753

Another thing is to know if the mobo has agp/pci locks, that's going to be very important to have a high stable oc.
