    Just curious, has anyone used SetFSB yet on this processor or any of the sandy bridge processors yet? I doubt I'll get an answer just yet but I'm interested in its oc abilities.

    the developers are currently working on this. I dont know about results, its going to take more thinking to oc thinks now, since the FSB path is gone.

    nope, but people of throtlestop are currently working on a version for sb notebooks.

    As usual CPU upgrades are for people that have the laptop for quite sometime, at least 2 years, otherwise I think its a waste of money, unless you are compiling a whole bunch of code, or doing video stuff
