Hidden Overclocking Options

You get a lot for the money here. Very stable and very fast with good matching hardware.

Why did they hide the overclocking?

You -can- overclock this board. Go into the BIOS by pressing DELETE during POST, and at the BIOS menu, press CTRL+F1. This will unlock a new menu option "Advanced Chipset Settings." You can change your FSB, multiplier, and RAM speed here. You cannot change your voltages.
