I made a modification to my mobile game so I can install 771 cpu "x5460" to 775 socket. Everything is working properly, but this CPU becomes extremely powerful when overclocked. The default frequency is 3.16 GHz, and I can only reach around 3.28 GHz if I try to go higher. My system fails to start when I attempt even a slight increase. I have the "Scythe Katana 3" CPU cooler, and my temperatures stay at a maximum of 44°C on Prime95. I really could overclock much more, but my fan is only set to 68% PWM speed on "SpeedFan".

A bit of a Necro update but. The ASR card only officially works with 95w CPUs, and the "x" model uses more power, possibly limiting your OC. Still, I own the "e" variant, but it doesn’t stabilize above 6% over time—after some burn testing (up to 36°C), it crashes even after long sessions.
