C2D + p5LD2-VM-SE Overclocking?

[HRISHIG]

Hi ,

Because of limited availably in the options regarding the motherboards for c2d, I have following options

C2D +
1) INTEL D946GSIL ~5 k
2) INTEL D965RY ~7.5k
3) ASUS P5LD2-VM SE ~5 k
4) ASUS P5B-VM ~7.5k


I am not a hardcore gamer but , I would prefer to over clock the Pc by 20 ? 30 % as ppl have overclocked C2D by 70 % w/o any problems.

Somebody told me that intel mobos can?t be over clocked . ( Is it true ?)

So now the only options are above 2 mobos. Has anybody successfully overclocked with these mobs? If yes then by how many %

Also I am planning to use 1 GB 533 transcende ram . How it will after the overclocking?

I will say, go for 965 Chipsets now rather than 945

Ya, you won't be able to overclock using Intel Mobos, go for gigabyte or ASUS, if you want onboard graphics then have a look at Gigabyte GA-965G-DS3 (intel G965 express chipset, don't need an extra graphics card),
but if you choose to purchase ASUS p5B Deluxe, then you will have to purchase a graphics card.
