currently i have Slot A Athlon 800 CPU (retail heatsink), MSI-6195 motheboard (Supports only PC100) , PC133 128 MB RAM, GeForce 256 DDR, and 20 gig. In the BIOS meny, my CPU temp is seem to be HIGH, 40-41 C - NOT OVERCLOCKED. in BIOS menu, i can increase the CPU frequency (101 Hz, 102 Hz etc...), - not sure if it's OK. and also i don't know how to change the multiplier. This is the first time overclocking experience.

What's the best heatsink to buy? and How would you install it on Slot A CPU? please help thanks

well what you need is a goldfingers device to unlock the cpu and mess around with the multipier, but first you need an hsf. Im not real familar with slot hsf's so i would look at reviews that compare many hsf's and see which came out on top, or maybe search the forum. As long as you get a good hsf on it then chances are changing the multiplier and board frequency you will be ok.
