Overclocking an Intel E2160
A while back I overclocked my aging Gigabyte motherboard and Intel Pentium 2160 processor. I overclocked the CPU from 1.8Ghz to 3.0Ghz and the machine has been rock solid with the CPU core temperature around 45° even under load.
The motherboard is a Gigabyte ga-p35-s3. Here are the settings I used;
CPU Clock Ratio [9x]
CPU Frequency [3.00 Ghz (333x9)]
CPU Host Freqency [333]
System Memory Multiplier [2.40]
System Voltage Control [Manual]
DDR2 Overvoltage Control [+0.1v]
PCI-E Overvoltage Control [+0.1v]
FSB Overvoltage Control [+0.1v]
CPU Voltage Control [1.50000v]
I hope this helps someone but of course your mileage may vary. Any changes you make as a result of this post are entirely at your own risk…
