    Hey guys,

    I'm looking into overclocking my core duo cpu, and heard somewhere that it's possible to physically alter the cpu to somehow boost the clockspeed from 1.6ghz to 2.0ghz and also increase fsb from 533mhz to 667. I think this is more of an "unlock" than an overclock, but I'm not sure how to do this.

    It is possible to do this in the older Pentium M but i dont think it works for the Core Duo.
