------------------------------
"Grant me the strength to accept the things that I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can and the wisdom to know the difference."As far as I remember all non "K" i5s can be used at z68 or p67 and they can also overclock a bit. They can be overclocked 400Mhz more than their turbo boost. The i5 2400 has a max turbo of 3,4 Ghz so you can achieve speeds of 3,8 Ghz with i5 2400 and a z68/p67 mobo.
edit: In this article the guy from bit-tech overclocks it to 3,99Ghz. http://www.bit-tech.net/hardware/c [...] e-review/5
Intel Core i5-2400
3.1GHz (31 x 100MHz)
Up to 3.99GHz (38 x 105MHz)
RAM: 1,680MHz
Extreme Load-Line Calibration, VCCSA: 1.1V, VCCIO: 1.106V
