The S-SPEC SR00B is the plain 2600, which is not overclockable unfortunately. The S-SPEC for the unlocked 2600K would be SR00C

You should be able to adjust the turbo boost multipliers to give you some extra performance.

The standard turbo boost multipliers are:

1 core utilised 3.8GHz (x38)
2 cores utilised 3.7HGz (x37)
3 cores utilised 3.6HGz (x36)
4 cores utilised 3.5HGz (x35)

You should be able to change these in the BIOS to:

1 core utilised 4.2GHz (x42)
2 cores utilised 4.1HGz (x41)
3 cores utilised 4.0HGz (x40)
4 cores utilised 3.9HGz (x39)

hi many thanks for that i got it to run nice without trying on 4.1 i like it still very fast compared to my 6 core amd ,i like this chip better seems to have more power.

cinebench 64 get 7.91 at 3.5ghz my old amd only got 5.5 lol at 4.2 ghz so defo seems better feels smoother aswell.

and black ops is running well quick.

many thanks
