Overclocking on a MSI M3-F Intel G31 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

Has anyone overclocked a CPU on this board: MSI M3-F Intel G31 (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard

If so , what results did you get? I am planning on putting an E5200 in it ...

Ta for that I thought as much so. I wonder why OC don't stock cheap but decent MATX S775 boards ?

Look's like I'll be going for another Gigabyte P31 board then (I have one in the kid's PC already) ... this is for a freind on a tight budget so price is a factor.

Have a look out for a Gigabyte GA-G31M-ES2L £35 ish

I have 3 additional PCs (for the Kids), 2 with GA-G31M-S2L and E5200, saved a bit by getting these boards and spent a bit extra on graphics. I have had no issues and I am well happy with em ..

There is definitely a market for cheap mobos that are not rubbish as these systems are relatively low power and can still deliver a decent performance with balanced components ... whoever has the board for sale will probably get the rest of the order as I prefer to purchase stuff from a single place and on this budget there won't be much difference in price across my usual suppilers.
