wow thanks mate..i just OC-ed my e8400 to 3.6ghz

wow..so easy? =.=

P35 mobo is famous among OCers

@TS

If you're afraid of failure, and do not wish to read long enough, just set the bus speed little by little, for example E8400 factory clock is 333Mhz (standard for Exxx), just try to set 20Mhz higher at each time, then check the CPU temp. For idle mode, 50 degrees is acceptable

IceBlade is a good cooler, so you have already got the right cooler to proceed with the OC Make sure you read and have knowledge of the terms and how it function

not so easy for noob like me
already do stress test..stable

hey hey 400mhz fsb on e8xxx is easy. i oc my system by just adjusting fsb from 333 to 400 directly.
vcore at stock, vdimm at auto, 1:1 ram:fsb ratio

It is easy, up to say 450fsb, or until you dive into gtl ref, PL, possible mem dividers vs pl, clock skews, sub timings, thats where the reading and experimenting comes into play
