You can now very cheaply and at great value reproduce the golden overclocking era by buying a Pentium Anniversary CPU and coupling it with a supported ASUS non-Z motherboard. Ofcourse this capability comes from an unlocked UEFI BIOS which you will need to download if you already have said motherboard. So make sure you download the correct version that corresponds to your ASUS Motherboards. Also those of you who are on a budget, now would be a good idea to buy a Devil’s Canyon and couple it with a non-z ASUS mobo. Ofcourse you will only get access to the multiplier ratio but that should suffice for a 100 – 200 Mhz above the stock turbo boost.

I fully support, this being an old timer overclocker, but I expect Intel to put the pressure on to sell more chipsets.. The aim of overclocking was not so much performance per se, but performance per dollar.
