All of us who are interested in computer technologies have definitely noticed the recent launch of the new Intel LGA1156 platform. The new CPUs turned out very interesting solutions, of course, not without drawbacks, but with a number of evident advantages. However, I am sure you know all that by now already, especially if you have already checked out our recent article called "Second Advent of Nehalem: Core i7-870 and Core i5-750 Processors in LGA1156 Platform". And, as it always happens with new systems, overclocking immediately becomes one of the hottest topics for discussion. The main CPU overclocking principles haven’t formally changed for a long time already. You must increase the base frequency trying to keep all other connected frequencies within acceptable intervals. You can also increase voltages if necessary monitoring the temperatures very carefully and it should also improve the final result. Everything is quite simple at first glance, but as a rule commencing overclockers quickly get lost and can’t find any similarity to their own system when you refer them to an Intel Pentium II overclocking guide, for instance. That is why it makes much more sense to explain everything using current examples, which is exactly what we are going to do today.
