So i got bored...

The_motivator · 01-28-2007, 01:08 PM

And I decided to attempt overclocking.

not too bad for a first /real/ try, not using anything like the AI overclocking or DFI equivalent i've always used.

Does a 6600 really need OC'ing anyway

?

I hate it when people talk about overclocking...

...because it sounds the sh*t and I can't do it

(*is also jealous of Core 2 Duo*)

I never knew how do bloody do it.

Anyone for a pointer?

YEah give him a pointer so he can draw me a map a 4year old could undestand

You just need to go into your BIOs and raise the FSB speed.

Most brand name computers (ie; Dell, HP, Compaq) disable to option to OC.

If you're talking about OC'ing your CPU.

OC'ing your GPU is a whole lot easier.

most modern mobos come with OC'ing instructions in their user manuals now actually, atleast mine did. No, it doesn't NEED to be oc'd, hell, i could've settled for a 6300. But most people don't need tuners or muscle cars that can go 200mph when the legal speed limit is somewhere between 55-75 depending on where you live. It's just to say you can. Also makes me feel better about spending 319 on a CPU. I've got mine up to x6800 specs for $600 less.

- on GPU oc'ing... i've had nothing but problems trying to oc my 8800, but i guess by the time i need to have more performance, i'll be able to toss a second in for relatively cheap

I'm thinking of bumping my CPU by .2Ghz but wait for my borked mem stick to get back and for the water cooling to arrive.

Yup, working on it as we speak.

Bit more difficult as im OC'ing a macbook pro but seems to be going just fine.
