I was just wondering about the overclockability of the new am1 processors. Sadley there is no k skewed parts but its the highest end Athlon looks like it has some potential but its lower than average click speed is holding it back. If it could be oc'ed to around 3 GHz it would make a great budget gaming platform. Has anyone seen any attempts at icing these new processors?
If you Google "Kabini overclock" or "am1 overclock" The first page does not exactly pop with all the stories of overclocking awesomeness. I see the RAM is somewhat overclockable, but the chip is locked to a multiplier of 20.5x. There does not seem to be strong support from motherboard manufactures either. I think this socket is best for grandma, net books, and maybe word processing. so even if it was really OC friendly, you may have some troubles finding CPU cooling solutions.
