H61 OC

[Mortenmette]

it is possible to overclock my i5 3570k in my h61 MB in any way?

What motherboard exactly? Does it have voltage control? Multiplier control?

 

[Mortenmette]

Its a Asus p8h61 and no it dosen't

 

[EarthDog]

If it doesnt have the overclocking software to use with it (check at MFG website) then, you are SOL.

 

[Mortenmette]

Sorry but what dose SOL mean?

 

[EarthDog]

S** Out of Luck.

Ahh is it not possible to Oc with some otter software?

Even if you were to be able to overclock it with some form of software, the motherboard is not designed for it. It doesn't have the proper cooling or parts necessary to OC. How/why did you end up with an unlocked processor and an H series board? Sounds like a Tigerdirect kit.

Suggestion, if you plan on overclocking, get rid of that board and get one designed for it like a Z68 or Z77 board.

Exactly...no cooling over the power parts, and doesnt appear to be as robust as others.

So wait, did you see the TurboV software at Asus?
