The Overclocking Guide

[kvarnerexpress 0]

What is Overclocking Overclocking when done right will Increases your PC's performance by large amount. It can take a $150 chip and give it the same speed as a $300+ chip. Also many pre-made computer such as Dell,HP,GateWay and many other do not let you overclock.Some Rules Don't overclock unless you accept that you may damage your equipment.Always take small steps when increasing voltages, bus speeds and multipliers.Never change BIOS settings if you're unsure of the results or what function they perform.Never assume that you'll get the same speeds as someone else, there can be many reasons why you won't.Remember just because it boots and runs for a while doesn't mean your system is safe or completely stable.

Ummm... yes and no. If you're talking about the clock multiplier you're correct for
certain, but there's no way a hardware manufacturer can actually stop you from
overclocking, you'd need the literal black box with some explosives.

I read overclocking guide if I'm right. Do you know how to play with FSB by any
chance? I've been looking for that for the longest time.

Because of that use prime95 is the best for that

Steps to follow to fit the frequencies by means of the BIOS: 1) Start or to reinitiate the computer and during the phase of verification of memory, hard disk detection and CPU we will press the key Of when it appears in the left inferior part the message "Press Of to to enter SETUP". 2) Within the blue screen of the Setup of the computer (Bios) we will move on the option Bios Features Setup, CPU Menu Soft or similar and will press Enter. 3) Modificaremos the option CPU Host Bus Frequency, Ext. Clock (PCI) or similar with AvP?g until looking for the speed of the bus of the wished motherboard (for example 112Mhz for processors whose bus works normally to 100Mhz). 4) In the section CPU Core: Bus Freq.M?ltiple, Multiplier factor or similar we will modify the value of the multiplier of the CPU (that can vary from 2.0x to the 8). 5) Exit the Bios keeping them change, for which we will press the function key F10 and responding to message SAVE to CMOS and EXIT (Y/N)? with and.Thank You !!Bye !!!
