[/CENTER] thanks dude. my computer is definetly handling anything i throw at it...but once games start getting super advanced...then ile think about OC'ing it.suki wrote:okay dude. there three ways to OC but i personally recommand not to do it. You can OC in your bio or if your not sure how to OC use the software that came with your motherbroad or you can download Ntune @ www.nvidia.com.
Overclocking can make it become very HOT and unstable. the heat of OC cause Lock ups.
Quad core 2.4ghz should be fine your running 4 cores personally don't OC clock your system is beasting already OC just makes it Pointless but if you want that type of power then chose of the options UP ABOVE GL & HF.
it's pointless dude are you are going to do is make your PC very unstable and you'll a decrease in FPS lost but hey it's not my PC but can i have it after it's fried from being OC kidding.PhenomPheonix wrote:thanks dude. my computer is definetly handling anything i throw at it...but once games start getting super advanced...then ile think about OC'ing it.suki wrote:okay dude. there three ways to OC but i personally recommand not to do it.

Every action HAS a reaction. There are alot of factors when Overclocking. How well your MB will overclock, how stable your frontside bus/ RAM will be, if at all when OC'd. How underated your CPU might be (headroom), and of course the lovely issue of heat/airflow in the case. The real pain in the a$$ about OC'ing, is to do it right, you should make small steps, which takes time. Sure it'd be easier to just crank it all the way up in the first shot, but, hehe, you can get into trouble. Having a good 2 or 3 programs to benchmark after changes is critical to SEE, what you're getting. Also, just because I COULD overclock my AMD FX say 500+ MHz, I chose not to push it all the way, because at the upper end, for MY setup, mostly just got alot of heat, and not as many gains, so I left it at about stock + 70%.
