| DG33TL Overclocking ability 2007 Intel Retail Edge
Please look at the below link. I have done alot of research and thought that I would give this a go. http://www.ocforums.com/showthread.php?p=5425228
Below if the post that I left after did the mod.
Works like a charm. I have the 2007 Intel Bundle. Q6600 paired with a DG33TL Intel Motherboard. I know having had a few Intel motherboards that over clocking would be near impossible. I have tried other things that outers have mentioned like SestFSB. Did not work no matter what. To many Lockups and crashes. So I started to read about the BSEL mods that people had started working on. I have read they they have worked for some but not others because of there motherboards and BIOS revs. I thought that I would try the above post to put a small piece of tape over the mentioned pin. When first boot I thought it had done nothing as he Intel BIOS sas that it is still running at the stock 2.4GHz and had a fsb speed of 1066. I took the processor back out of the case and looked over the tape and it looked to have a very good dimple in the tape. I decided to added another piece to make sure there was no connection. BIOS still says the default. When I booted into Windows I noticed that it was moving along a little faster. I launched CPUz and speed is now around 3.0GHZ and the fsb is 1333MHz. I was very happy. This is a wonderful mod for someone that does not want to purchase a new overclockable motherboard. |
