not me, they have very restrictive oc's, they have been limited to multipyer oc's only due to having ondye gfx. plus there going to be low to mid range parts although there ment to be direct replacments for the i5/i7 it may well be 2012 b4 they release K series parts that have unlocked core multis. the real promise of these chips will be the 6 8 and 12 core versions at todays low end i7 9 series * +

Overclocking of Socket-1155 compatible processors through modifying the default 100 MHz base clock speed is very limited, probably to about only 2-3 at most, due to the factory integrating a single clock generator to control the speed of all electrical buses. Hence, locking the base clock (BCLK) of clock generator has to be done to prevent other hardware components from failing to work. * +

However, Intel will allow overclocking through modifying the unlocked clock multiplier of up to 57 times the speed of base clock, which will be available in K-edition processors * +
