How do you overclock your cpu?


Recommended Posts

I was wondering how do you overclock your cpu. For some reason my BIOS won't let me change anything. So please help me out?

AMD Athlon 1.0Ghz T-Bird

384 PC-133 RAM

ESC motherboard

1x80 gig hd and 1x20gig hd

64 mb videocard

24x10x40 lite-on cdrw

16x lite-on dvd

133MHZ fsb

your fsb is 100mhz or 133mhz? try to change your fsb to 101 or 134 and so on, until your computer starts to be unstable. You may need to change the voltage... :ermm:

forget about the 100mhz thing. :alien:

the max fsb that i could get was 143 mhz, if i'm not wrong... :ermm:

the xp voltage is 1.75v, and i used 1.85v...

does your motherboard have options to change FSB and Multiplier settings? because if both of those options aren't there, you can't rightly overclock. :) maybe they're jumpers, but you've gotta be able to twiddle with those two options. and probably voltage too...

you'll also need to unlock your processor either using the pencil trick or trace tape or something like that. the pencil trick is the cheapest (free)

lots of motherboards change the FSB voltage and multipliers by changing jumpers physically on the motherboard

my mobo gives the change all that stuf in the bios. only the multiplier thing is on mobo, by switches. :o
