Overclocking Options

EVGA P55 LE offers some good overclocking options under a menu called “Frequency/Voltage Control”. You have even the option to save up to four different configuration profiles for quickly recovering a different configuration set. The main options we could see with the initial BIOS release (08.00.16, 08/28/2009) were:

  • Dummy O.C.: Automatically configures a basic overclocking for you.
  • CPU base clock: can be adjusted from 133 MHz to 300 MHz in 1 MHz increments.
  • PCI Express clock: can be adjusted from 100 MHz to 200 MHz in 1 MHz increments.
  • CPU voltage: From 1.0 V to 2.3 V in 0.00625 V increments.
  • CPU termination voltage (VTT): From 1.050 V to 2 V in 0.025 V increments.
  • CPU clock generator (PLL) voltage: From 1.050 V to 2.4 V in 0.025 V increments.
  • Memory voltage: From 1.20 V to 1.50 V in 0.05 V increments then from 1.50 V to 2.60 V in 0.1 V increments.
  • Chipset (PCH) voltage: From 1.050 V to 2.625 V in 0.025 V increments.

Plus memory timings, which can be also highly tweaked.
