Picking up my new deck this week:
Abit IC7
P4C 2.6 MHz
2 x 512K OCZ EL DDR
ATI AIW 9700 Pro
Thermaltake A6000A
Enermax 465W PSU
Pioneer DVR-A05
Pioneer 16X DVD-ROM
2-WD 120Gb Caviars
1-WD 80Gb Caviar
Just stock cooling... no fancy stuff.
First off, any comments... did I do alright? I tried to listen to feedback I got from you guys and other forums/reviews.
As I am sure is obvious, I am a total newbie to overclocking. I have read about some of the issues you guys are having with this mobo and I was hoping somebody would be generous enought to walk me through my first overclock...
I have very modest expectations and don't want to be getting anywhere the limits you speed demons do. But, at the same time, even with stock cooling, I was thinking that what I have setup (esp. in terms of RAM) should buy me some modest OCing without sacrificing stability. So, any suggestions for modest OC settings? I assume I should go to bios rev 1.1?
Sorry to be a burden but I do hope to be a contributor here one day once I learn a little.
Thanks again so much!
