I recently just bought my new parts for my computer that I love which you can see in my signature... I was wondering which would be the best way to OC my system for the best performance, and how I would do that since I'm a n00b at OCing... I am currently using EasyTune4 in easy mode to have a system bus of 205mhz, and cpu at 2260.14. All ideas would be appreciated...
 
I was also wondering is it better to use the switches on my motherboard to over clock or just use the EasyTune4 program? If the switches are better what multiplier should I use? I'm using a thermaltake Polo 735 Extreme 3 in 1 cpu cooler to cool my cpu...
 
ewww no!! use the BIOS plz..up the FSB a few mhz at a time and keep the vCore high enough to be stable...what kinda cooling u got and what are your temps at?

oh i see cooling..iand use the highest multiplyer you can..ur chip is locked so it should be...11 is the highest i think?
 
depends on your FSB..just keep knocking the fsb up 5mhz at a time till it wont boot up..whne it wont boot up up the vcore and keep going. watch temps tho!..
 
Is there a way to get my FSB above 200, and where would I do that in the Bios? Also how can I up the Vcore when it won't boot up? Finally how hot is too hot for my CPU? Sorry I'm really a big n00b at OCing...
