Just to confirm.. A H67 cannot overclock a new K chip.. Isn't that correct?   :-\

Thats nuts thinking about it seen has the h55m- ud2h with original core i5 was one of the best overclocking boards with this chip.  ???

That is my understanding of it, yes.

Don't forget to overclock the new chips you can only use the multiplier.

That is because everything is integrated now and so if you were to change the clock speed on one thing it would change on everything and it would all fall apart. I must admit to not being totally happy with it but what can we do? The one good thing I guess is that it does simplify things.
