Hi, I need assistance with my CPU. I don't see any options to adjust the PCI Express speed in the BIOS. I want to overclock it from 2.5ghz to 2.7 or 2.8ghz. Temperatures stay below 50 degrees Celsius under load, usually around 45. It seems changing the PCI might be necessary to avoid damaging the card. Thanks for your help.

You don't have to modify the code to achieve those speeds. Simply install a Q9550 will suffice. The 12MB cache compared to 4Mb is equivalent to the clock speed in any case.
