So my question is how can i make my processor faster like can i bring it up to 3.00 GHz and how? On ram Definately need to get 4gb but can i buy any type of pci-e stick or must it be DDR2 or PC2-6400? I am not interested in buying cooling, But if anyone can give me the info on what ram i can buy and how i can clock my pc to be better safely i would hugely appreciate it. If you need any more info just ask. Also i am noob to overclocking and my gtx 260 is factory clocked so it was a good buy for me and i am afraid of doing any sort of clocking on my processor without peoples knowledge of what is possible for me thats why i posted here, Thanks!
