To include manufacturers didn't add OC support for non k series until recently. 

You do realize that the chip in particular is 11 years old, and way before any z, or k anything.

i found some ppl getting it to 4.5ghz

If you only have a cheap loop that pentium will run really hot , and may not be able to keep up.

 

It should be able to OC on any non oem lga 775 board.

If I'm looking at the right cpu its only 6 years old

I'm prettier sure the D was the hottest CPU ever manufactured

Go look up the fx 9590, 220W tdp cpu.

Hottest. FX-9590s have some of the highest TDPs, but can run relatively cool for what it is.

Pentium Ds in general are very bitchy and do run hot.

Back then it wasn't as much about K vs non-K and OC support vs no OC support. Overclocking simply wasn't officially supported. We pushed all CPUs and killed a lot of them in the process. Rumormills spat out insider info about specially clockable steppings and people imported and pre-overclocked them in bulk. 

 

OP, you should  look into boards with Intel P45. Something along the lines of Asus P5Q Deluxe if you can find one. Don't skimp on the RAM either. It used to make a real difference in OC. And don't overlook broken boards. The caps are gonna be bulging in a board this old so you're going to have to solder new ones on.

Yea they didn't have the same power saving and frequency adjusting features as a modern CPU. I remember them as always blowing hot air, my FX in comparison runs quiet at idle

Read my comment above also, made a mistake thinking the cpu was 6 years old and not 10
