Hello there! This looks like a great community, and I'm just breaking into overclocking and am in need of advice.
I'm trying to speed up an older PC I have without getting new parts at the moment. I've read through a lot of the sections on http://www.overclockers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=339051
In the Bios:
I've disabled aggressive timing, cool'n'quiet, dynamic overclocking, and spread spectrum. Set HT Frequency to 4x (explained below) and the FSB at 250. AGP is at 66. I haven't messed too much with the RAM yet. This brings me to 2.25GHz.
When I drop the HT to 3x and crank up the FSB (anywhere above 250 basically), my Core Speed suddenly drops to under 100 Hz - *** am I doing wrong?!
All help is much appreciated =)
