AMD CPU's have the ability to be overclocked in two ways. One is by adjusting the FSB (Front Side Bus), the other is by unlocking the processor as you mention in your post which requires reconnecting the L1 bridges on the topside of the chip.

Using either method, most CPU's tend to reach a point where they require more voltage to attain a higher speed via fsb or multipler. I would suggest you check the "Tips and Techniques" section on the main page. There is a wealth of general overclocking info and specific information on AMD and Intel CPU's and the methods of overclocking each.

Good luck

Its kinda hard to read what your saying. But, to change the multipyier you must unlock the cpu.

are you talking about trace tape? find it

Yes you can use regular pencils, but I advice you pencil your bridges in with pressure. for the dfrister kit idea you can use regualar tape.

if u are planning to use pencil then use a lead pencil.....they can be more accurate as they are thinner
