Well, this forum's supposed to be about cooling, not overclocking XP-Ms on A7N8Xs. IMHO he's done the right thing (figure if the mods were
unhappy about us having this conversation here we'd be at least be getting PMs asking us to can it - but there's probably going to be more information elsewhere (more misinformation, too
)

I have read that Asus boards cannot go above 12.5 with the mobile.

This is certainly true of the A7N8X. It's missing one of the multiplier bits needed. (Search the AMDMB Asus forum for "multiplier" and you'll have a full explanation.) You can remedy this with the "wire trick", but then you're stuck with multipliers 13 and over. If your fsb "maxes out" somewhere around 200MHz, this might be something useful. It's just a matter of connecting two adjoining pins - the "trick" is just using very fine wire to run from one hole in the socket to the other. No soldering, gluing, or conductive-trace building required.

I need to yank all the insulation off the mobo anyway

Insulation? cool! Going TEC? Never done that myself (folks here seem to know
lots about it, though - this being a
cooling forum and all) Sounds like you are definitely going to need the wire trick...
