Gigabyte GA-945GZM-S2 (rev. 3.x) with E7200

[hwtan]

I am currently using Gigabyte GA-945GZM-S2 (rev. 3.x) with a Pentium D 925, which is extremely hot. So, I intended to upgrade the CPU with a E7200 or E7400, which runs cooler. However, I need to overclock the MB to 1066 mhz fsb. How can I go about it?

Not sure how to go about it, but you can read this:

why do you need to OC to 1066? Your board supports 533 DDR2. That is 1066.

The E7200 is 1066 stock clock.

i dont think you need an overcloak to reach 1066. If you do, read the stickies in the cpu forums.
