Haha , want OC , get a custom Config Computers .. got more room to OC .

Package Computers by Companies usually had their BIOS locked ... and usually Lousy MOBO .... Cant OC much ...

The money you spend is count for the expensive software and the warranty , not really the hardware , because with the same Configuration , i can get even cheaper on retail prices on local market ...

Ah ... still wondering why DELL still selling the P4 comp ... kinda out of date ... now conroe biggrin.gif

if not mistaken, intel board wif i945 has the overclocking option even it was original OEM intel board

in ur case, go into the BIOS setup & try playin' wif the menu given, whos know ur mobo has the FSB adjustment option icon_rolleyes.gif

if im not mistaken acer threw in a decent cpu hsf (aku dah tengok dah heatsink ko).
It has heatpipes and it should perform better than the stock intel heatsink.. rclxms.gif

What i think u should do is change your mobo to a decent one, use artic silver 5 thermal paste, change the heatsink fan and ur good to go. smile.gif
