Need advice on my first overclock..Please help a noob out

[dan48]

Hello everyone, I will keep it short and simple and thank you beforehand for any tips and advice I might receive from what looks to be a buzzing community Anyway I am trying to OC my AMD Athlon 4600+ 2.40Ghz processor to be able to run my games at a better quality. From what I have read here are some of the important specs

Motherboard-Biostar MCP6P-M2 http://www.biostar.com.tw/app/en/mb/introduction.php?S_ID=315

Power Supply-BFG 450 watt http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=2181001&CatId=1078

RAM- 3GB ddr2-800 sdram

I was just looking for some feedback from people who have OC'd a similar rig or some tips on what I should set my clock ratio/cpu frequency. Please any advice would be great and thank's again, look forward to being a part of this forum

Hello Dan48, I deleted your duplicate thread and moved this one to the AMD section. You should get more views that way.

Dan, Does you bios have basic overclock options like the ability to change the CPU frequency (aka, "HT Renference" and "front side bus", i.e, "fsb") and the CPU voltage?
