Welcome to the forum

i dont think you will be able to do much overclocking with a name brand PC as they dont leave you many overclocking options in BIOS. You may be able to try some software to change FSB but as far as CV goes you will have a tough time which means at best if you are lucky you may get a weak overclock. look for SoftFSB or do a search and you may find a link there's also another program so keep your eyes open.


good luck

As Outhouse mentioned, your out of luck as branded computers don't have any option to change the FSB.

I wouldn't bother with the programs since they are bad overclockers anyway and they'll give you like a 50mhz increase heh!

Why do people keep asking how to overclock their OEM computers? Shouldn't they read the basic instruction before posting the question? I hope I am not too mean here. =p

They are new to the sport and they don't have a clue what to do so they just post there's nothing wrong with it...
