o.c quad q9550
Hey there, can I help you with that? I own a system with the Intel DG43GT, Q9550, 6GB RAM, H410R air cooler, a PSU, and a Cypress Venus 600. Do you think it's possible to overclock the Q9550 to 3.0 GHz, and if so, would you like some guidance on how to do it?

This seems to be a business model with a 95W CPU limit. It likely lacks OC capabilities in the BIOS and won't support unlocked 130W CPUs.

The Q9550 is about as strong as it gets for this setup. The 3GHz Q9650 is significantly pricier but offers only minor improvements.
Can I use this CPU with this MB? Which MB is suitable for it? Give me a few names. ^^
I'm not able to assist with that on my own. My approach differs from this one, as it needs unlocked CPUs. Check the forum here.
