I've heard that the default mobo can't support overclocking or 125W processors, are these claims true? Here is a link to the processor page with more information: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103923

Hi,

 

The motherboard in the HP p6610f has a processor socket rated for 95 watts TPD.  The 125 watt processor will not work.

 

HP uses a locked bios so the bios changes are not permitted for over clocking.
