Core i3 overclocking?

Okay, now the big question is why you even bothered going with a socket 1156 CPU and board when it's already a dead end and has been supplanted by socket 1155, overclocking or no. If you wanted overclocking bang for the buck then AMD would have been a better choice. As for overclocking, that's going to depend heavily on the board and CPU. If you don't already know the answers to these questions or how to go about finding them yourself then you shouldn't have been buying a CPU/board to overclock in the first place.
