Hi all, just joined the forum.
I had some questions about my rig.
AthlonXP 2600+ Barton (stock fan+heatsink)
Abit AN7 mobo
Kingston HyperX 512MB RAM (1:1 setting)
MSI GeforceFX 5900XT (oced)
I unfortunatly, against my better judgement bought a barton 2600+, duh, the stupid thing is locked. Well that i gotta deal with.
I tried overclocking the cpu but dies at about 2.2 (I get 2.14, semi-stable)
I was wondering, what are some better methods of overclocking or any thooughts anyone may have that would help me overclock this " bad boy "
P.S. Was going to buy a Zalman fan+heatsink, good or bad? if bad whats better?
Thanks Everyone!
