Posted August 2, 2014 that's from a year ago. everyone that says you cant overclock the pentium on h series boards are reading posts from a year ago. I know. I know the other chipsets can overclock. I feel as if you are possibly getting too defensive. The post says Intel was patching the microcode. Clearly, they ended up nowhere based upon the new BIOSes and motherboards out now. To put it basically, I am on your side, and I know about all of this... Go look at my post here. I already know.

Posted August 3, 2014 l have this deal. I bought it during July 4th sale for $71. I had it oc to 3.8Ghz on stock cooler but changed to the Cooler master N520 for better temps.

Posted August 3, 2014 Motherboard matters if you want to overclock. I think one main reason my motherboard cannot get higher clocks stable is the lack of VRM heatsink and the locked core voltage. Spread spectrum is also locked so I get 99.76 bus speed thus making my oc actually 3.790Ghz instead of 3.8Ghz .
