I personally have Athlon64 3200+ which runs at default frequency of 2Ghz overclocked to 2.6Ghz on A8N SLI Deluxe.
Running nice and cool at max 44C full load with XP-90HSF.
I have other machine with P4 2.6C @ 3.25ghz running at oced speeds for more than a year. No issues what so ever.

Chances are quite thin, the intel mobo's PLL ic shud be supported.amey_dude said:Hey I also hv P4 1.7GHz And an original intel mobo.
Can the softwares like CPU-FSB sort of help in overclocking original mobos??
