I'd like to ask the community about a recent gaming build (on a budget as I'm a universitarian now) I've recently made.
I could post the full build as a separate topic if you like to see more or suggest (that would be even better); Briefly the machine is basically a Dell Optiplex 990 MT (the "big" case version) which I bought cheap from UK (I'm Italian, from Milan, prices for hardware is higher); It sorts now i7-2600, 12Gb of mismatched brand but correct speed DDR3 1333Mhz, Liteon-it SSD 256Gb as main drive along HDD and a GTX 1060 GS 6Gb.
I was wondering on this Q67express if I could upgrade to a not tested 2600k remaining able to change multiplier through software like intel's XTU (within stock unchangeable voltage) to get a bit more CPU performance. It's on the same 95w Tdp. Overclocking FSB seems impossible, and I can't even find the clock generator on the MB which seems "hidden".
I know it's not an overclocking MB (I used to have an assembled pc years ago) but it makes me crazy that I can't even gain some Mhz!
