after several months of web-surfing and google searches I find myself still stuck at step 0. My system is about 6 yrs old but its been very good to me and i just cant let it go.. i am looking into buying a new system in the new year but before i bury this dinosaur i would like to see if i can squeeze anymore power from overclocking.. any help would be greatly appreciated...ty

That link is blocked at my office so I cant help this second. Can you post some specs in the thread like your motherboard and CPU?

Im imagining you are SOL, however, look in my signature in the meantime to see if any of the overclocking guides apply to your system. That should get you at least thinking about it.

Single core Venice, 90nm, single channel DDR1.

Brings me back.

Well if my Newcastle is any sign of what you may beable to do. You should with out even raising the voltage beable to bring the FSB up to 210mhz, IF you have PC-3200 sticks like CPU-Z is showing, you should beable to bring them up from 333 mode to 400. You should also beable to raise your HT to full 1.0 spec (800mhz, yours is at 600)

In short you should with little effort end up with the following.
2520mhz CPU
420mhz DDR
840mhz HT

I wont promise you anything, but my 130nm Athlon 64 3400+ would do this.

Something to hold you over would be to try to track down a Athlon 64 4000+ X2. If your really lucky an FX-60, or even an Opteron 180

Infact Ebay has an Opteron 180 for 40$ right now. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Opteron-180...6CD-/230767447141?pt=CPUs&hash=item35bacfcc65
