Anybody overclock??

Post by thefordmccord »

I have been running for FSB at 166 for a while. I decided to take it up a few more notches to 173. My 2.4 is now running at 3114 MHz!

Image

Oh, and check out the memory speed. My memory bus is at 216 MHz. Thats right, DDR432!! I am maxing out my ram!

Image

Not bad for a 2 year old computer. I would like to get a new video card to put in it...

pretty much same as yours... P4 Prescott @ 3.4 1gig of DDR ram.

Im afraid to overclock the processor because of heat. I have been doing some reading and some people have pushed a 3.2 prescott up to 4ghz and it is running at 80 degrees @ full load for 2 weeks with out any problems. Seems REALLY high to me, but if a Prescott can handle higher temps, I might push it a few 100mhz.

The only overclocking I have done so far is to my gfx card. I have my 6800GT running at Ultra speeds (400/1100). Isnt much of an increase over the stock speeds but I have a phobia of frying my parts.
