Hi there
I'm very experienced in using computers (or at least I like to think so). Just built a brand new PC and have fitted an AMD II X2 240 processor which has 2 cores running at 2.8Ghz.
It works very well, however after much research I have discovered it overclocks very well too. I'd like to overclock my processor but I've never overclocked before.
The motherboard I run is a Biostar MCP6PB M2+ with a Pheonix BIOS.
I've done some temperature monitoring and my CPU runs at about 30degrees centigrade at high load. AMD say the temperature limit is 74degrees centigrade so I shouldn't have a problem there.
Apparently the perfect speed to overclock it to would be 3.2GHz so that's my target really.
Could anybody give me some advice on how to overclock?
