As a leading manufacturer in motherboard industry, AOpen always listens to what customers want and develop products to fit
different user's requirements. Reliability, compatibility, leading technology and friendly features are our basic goals when
designing motherboards. Other than above mentioned design criteria, there are power users who are always seeking to push
the limitation of the system performance by overclocking who we call them "Overclocker".
This section is dedicated to overclockers.
This high performance motherboard is designed for maximum
133MHz
CPU bus clock. But it comes with clock generator of
166MHz
when we design it to accommodate future CPU bus clock. Our lab test results shown that
150MHz
is achievable when
proper setting and qualified components were presented, but not guarantee that it would work properly on your side. The CPU
clock ratio can be up to 12.5x that supports almost all of Athlon / Duron CPUs in the future and provides flexibility for
overclockers..
But not guaranty.

Tip:
Note that overclocking may also
cause thermal problem. Please make
sure that the cooling fan and the
heatsink were adequate to dissipate
excessive heat that's generated by
overclocking the CPU.
Warning:
The design of this product follows CPU and chipset vendor's
design guideline. Any attempts to push beyond product specification are
not recommended and you are taking your own risk to damage your
system or important data. Before doing overclocking, you must make sure
your components are able to tolerate such abnormal setting, especially
CPU, SDRAM, hard disks, and AGP VGA cards.
