This week our regular forum member "Windwithme" from Taiwan got his hands on Biostar's upcoming T-Power I45 motherboard that is based on Intel's P45 Express chipset.

 

Using an unreleased Intel Core 2 Duo E8600 processor (E0 stepping) and the T-Power motherboard, Windwithme managed to push the FSB all the way up to 612MHz and that was using standard air cooling.

 

Most boards usually top out at around the 550MHz mark but this board pushed on and allowed the processor to be overclocked all the way up to almost 4.3GHz with a standard air CPU cooler.

 

Check out his full first look and overclocking results over at this forum thread.
