 Very Happy Very Happy Is that a little easier to overclock? I don't want to light the thing on fire, or blow it up, but I would like to make it run faster...I don't have much money for more RAM either. Let me know what you guys think, Whatever you can do is great.

Anymore info? By all means, let me know, I got it!  Very Happy

thanks all

I would start with this site; it should be easy enough to follow.

Don't overclock it (the HT)... it's fast enough.  Myself, I haven't overclocked anything for more than a few minutes (as a test... messing around) since my 1 gen Celeron 333 [1996 or some crap] (overclocked to 666 - my name is Damon, I had to do it) Once chips started getting fast enough in my opinion it wasn't worth it anymore.  I have an athlon 3000+ (running at 2.17 GHz).  Now what's difference is it really going to make if I overclock it to say 2.4 or 2.6 GHz 10.5 to 19.8% --- and heat my chip up from a very cool 102*F (38.9*C) [Thermaltake rules THERMALTAKE Silent PurePower 410 PSU,  THERMALTAKE Tsunami and a Video card cooler (not my exact vc cooler but you get my drift)  they keep my s$#% pretty damn cool, even under load] ----- up to 117*F(47*C) or more, I'd rather be a little slower and keep my stability any day Wink

By the way, are Dual Core Intel chips out yet?  Can I friggen upgrade yet and sell one of you guys some of my old stuff Razz

You know man, you really shouldn't give out your name on a public message board.  Smile

I'd still like to do it, just a little even, maybe to about 3.2 or 3.4 GHz, is that a lot? is it even possible?  Sad

Exactly. As long as you're over 13, it's your business if you want to give out your name on the 'net or not.

I have a P4 3.0 (HT) overclocked to 3.31 GHz, no problems. Was VERY easy with my ASUS motherboard.

3.0 to 3.31 isn’t a vast increase and even with a slim 10% increase you’ll need more cooling. When you want to over-clock anything cooling is the basic element. Tweaking your operating system should be looked into first then slowly build your knowledge into hardware.
