Can I ask you all something?I am just a newbie want to learn how to overclock and what i wanted to ask you all is.What should i see when Im choosing the right processor?Because some people say that some batch is better for oc.I dont really get it and I also read in the internet about stepping but how can i determine which one is really good for OC?Hope you guys can guide me..Sorry if I asked stupid question

Hey all, my first time OC.. can this accepted? pls guides me.. still unclear about those voltage and ram thing.

im using Intel DP965LT motherboard,

can i overclock my e6400 using this mobo?
seems like i cant find anything to do in my bios..
and i have just flash it to the latest bios..

Guys,
If I wanna overclock my C2D E6300 from 1.86GHz to 3.0GHz, which CPU air cooling model best suit to lower the heat?
Mobo is GA-965P-S3. My budget is around RM100+-

hi all, i wanna overclock my pentium celeron 1.8GHz. can anybody help me how to overclock?

thanks!

Hi... i wish to over clock my Q6600 to at least 3.0Ghz. Can anyone help me? Below is a screen shot of all the info from cpuz.

u cant simply aiming d speed unless u tried...
not all proc is good in ocing...
for example, got ppls can OC E8400 using stock vcore or less....
and some need to crank till 1.5 to get 3.8ghz...
at least u guys need to know ur mobo well and ur proc oso...thanks

i got one question..is it a must to oc our ram timing if we oc our proc ?

one thing more, the temp inside..everything ,the chipset-NB,SB, processor,ram, must below warning, or cool..then u cant pump the speed more

You have to do this from your BIOS, search up google or look at the pinned threads for more info.

Celerons are good overclockers just that the performance gain is not much. I'm have run a celeron 2.4 @ 2.8 stock cooler and stock voltage no problems, around 2.84 it starts to show signs of unstable oc. however at 2.8 the heat was really really high, but it continued going on without problems... although it seems okay, the heat will eventually shorten the proc's life. Which means to say, if i have a really efficient cooler, i can run it at 2.8 no problem with stock voltage.

but then again, every proc is different and it's better you go up the range slowly (0.02Ghz to 0.04Ghz) per increase until you reach the unstable point.

Be sure to stress your OC so that you know where is the limit. OC can cause data corruption so dont over do it. Use stress/benchmark programs to test after every adjustment you make to be safe.

Try not to increase the voltage until the processor begs for it (shows unstablility). but remember that unstablility can be cause by other factors also, like mobo or temperature... so do always check other factors to be safe.

It's better you search up more info which is already available throughout the forum..

And lastly, worship the god of overclock and follow his rules carefully and you will be relatively safe with good speed.
