new Mobo DFI ICFX 3200 & E2180

Anyone give me a hand - I am used to overclocking (not very good but I got my opty 165 to 2.8 on a DFI ultra D) but this new board and chip confuses me.

Has anyone overclocked on this mobo, and if so can you give me a hand - I dont really understand the options - cant see where to just up the FSB like I did with the other one.

Many thanks

FSB/PCI-E ect control is under "Performance Options"

Thanks for the posts - it has been decribed as "BIOS will more than likely humble all but the most experienced of overclockers" - just my luck, all I wanted was to get the old C2D running as fast as my old 165 (2.8) and turn off the speedstep!

Will have a play with it and try not to fry anything.
