auto overclock?

fobose · 10 Jul 2015 at 18:22

Hello,

I recently bought this bundle from OCUK: https://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=BU-006-GI&groupid=2833&catid=2846&subcat=2860 and have noticed that in the bios the CPU speed is showing 3.9GHz.

I have been out of touch with computer hardware for some time (socket 775 is what I have been familiar with). Do all motherboards auto overclock the CPU nowadays? I can't see any options that make it auto overclock, unless I am being blind!

Many thanks,
fobose

Ah turbo boost! Did a bit of digging online. Does this affect stability at all, i.e is it always guaranteed to work ok?

I was planning on doing any overclocking yet

Cool! I will leave it on for now then. Thanks for the reply
