the bsel mods are 200mhz to 266mhz, 266mhz to 333mhz,333mhz to 400mhz.
the silver pens from ratshack wont work cause of the "thin clear coat" after it dries. the pins in the socket can push thru it. the lead pencil wont work cause the resistance is to high. the best route to go is the "window defrogger kit" its liquid copper that dries hard, only about $12.
I'm fairly sure that those have the Allendale core which didn't overclock as well as the Conroe core. Honestly, I don't think you will see 5ghz without some serious voltage and subzero temps.3.2 Ghz to 5 Ghz... sure it's a big jump but I'm sure it's possible (will have water cooling also)
And is there no way to up voltages with a pin mod? I did that with my laptop.
there is a 1600mhz mod? Where?
if the cpu has a 333MHz/1333Mhz = BSEL signal H/L/L, the 400MHz/1600MHz = BSEL signal H/H/L. what that means is you either connect BSEL2 to BSEL0 or Connect a VSS pad/pin to BSEL0 to show a "H" signal instead of a "L".
in order to get a "L" you have to isolate the pin/pad. either bad covering the pad with "clear nail polish" or with a small peice of type.
Getting a "H" signal is only possible in the two ways i listed above.
hmm ok thats a bit weird then since the "L" is suppose to be a grounded pin. To mean meaning to show it as "H" you need to join to another "H" pad or to a VSS per the old E4300 thread. what you said about using Electrical tape would make sense if we needed a "H" pad to show as "L". **ok now your going to make me read the old E4300 thread agian,BRB***yes edited in**a small square of electrical tape works perfect to isolate a pad to make a L signal pin appear H to the mobo... done this MANY times in my E4300 for VID pad mods.
as per BSEL and VID pins mods you just need to study the white papers intel provides... its quite easy, but we / you need to know the exact cpu as the tables vary from cpu series to series.
I've been following these pad mod threads closely...I have a Dell Optiplex 755 with an E6550....I really want to pad mod it, as its the only machine I own that's not overclocked..
What would be my best option as far as getting a nice stable overclock?
Its pretty much just a web surf box, but I cant stand to have it running stock......

i am posting both LGA775 BSEL and Socket M/P settings. notice anything yet?
