The 1.8GHz Core 2 Duo E4300 should be a real treat for an overclocker. Having a default FSB frequency of 200MHz and a rather high multiplier of 9x (the same as the Core 2 Duo E6600 has), this CPU should overclock much simpler than junior models of the E6000 series. You need to increase the FSB frequency to overclock the CPU and here it can hardly be limited by the capabilities of the chipset or mainboard as it was often the case with the Core 2 Duo E6300. The e4300 is expected to be available on or around the 21st of January, and will retail for approximately US$165.
