How to Overlock the CPU to get much faster?


Recommended Posts

For the stupidly insane amount of money that a Liquid Nitrogen cooling system is going to cost you to build, you could probably build yourself a top of the range i7 computer with all the trimmings. Also, there are no pre-fabricated Liquid Nitrogen kits, you have to make them yourself, and the components are very expensive, especially the compressor needed to actually liquefy the Nitrogen in the first place

You would probably need between $5000 and $10,000 for the equipment, and as someone else stated, it just isn't practical. Whilst all components have some overclocking potential, to overclock them to the degree that they require nitro cooling would cause them to wear out pretty quickly.

For the same price, you could build yourself a pretty awesome i7 rig, with liquid cooling, and absolutely top quality components.

Seriously, just don't waste your time or money. Also, it takes a lot of expertise to maintain and implement a nitrogen cooling solution.

Whilst it looks great on videos, it seriously is not worth doing to the average user. The best way to get extra performance is to buy faster components.

i know the prices

i want the procedure to do!

To the OP: you know so little about computers; why do you want to build your own? Building a computer is fairly simple if you know anything about hardware, and generally the only people that should build a pc are those that know at least the basics. Pretty much, since you're asking "how do I build a pc?" you shouldn't build one.

If you try and build a computer your likely to be wasting your money, you'll either break something and wont have a return or it will break because you havent done it correctly.

Save yourself the hassle and buy one..

r u having exp....

I had AMD quad core 1.8 ghz and I overclocked to 2.0 after reading this thread, and actually noticed a speed increase...who said this doesn't work or make the computer faster ?

I hope this is a joke... But in case you're serious, a somewhat recent processor (if it's quad core it's come out at least in the past couple of years) overclocked from 1.8 to 2 is going to yield somewhat of a performance increase. There's no disputing that. However, a P4 Celeron (which is NOT overclockable with his current mobo) is not going to be noticeably faster even if he brought it to 4 ghz, since the Celeron is a crippled P4, and the P4 is grossly outdated by today's standards. This thread isn't about whether or not overclocking does anything (it obviously does), it's whether a laymen can install a liquid nitrogen cooling system (which the answer is no, someone without any experience or knowledge most likely can't). I mean, come one, he's asking how to build a computer. How the hell is he going to install a custom liquid nitrogen system?

That's like me saying "How can I custom fabricate a turbo for my naturally aspirated car and install it?" and then following that question up by asking "How do I change my oil?"

    • Researchers claim Microsoft's quantum breakthrough is flawed by basic Python errors by Karthik Mudaliar Microsoft's aggressive roadmap to deliver a commercial quantum supercomputer by 2029 has now hit a bit of a snag, and it's not because of a complex sub-zero dilution refrigerator, but rather because of a few lines of basic Python code. A new critique published in the scientific journal Nature argues that simple software errors effectively manufactured the breakthrough that Microsoft's foundational research claimed back in 2025 into Majorana-based topological qubits. Topological quantum computing, the path that Microsoft chose for its research, relies on creating and controlling "Majorana zero modes." These are exotic quasiparticles that theoretically offer vastly superior error resistance compared to the highly sensitive superconducting qubits currently being championed by rivals like Google and IBM. However, physically proving you have created these particles requires sifting through massive amounts of complex electrical conductance data to isolate a specific "topological gap." Because of the sheer volume of data, physicists rely heavily on custom software pipelines to process the results. This is where the Python scripts come in. Now, according to the critique, Microsoft’s data processing software contained fundamental programming errors that ultimately skewed the published results. By mishandling data arrays or deploying incorrect logic within the Python script, the software supposedly discarded "noisy" or contradictory data. Which is why it only highlighted the specific electrical measurements that supported the topological-gap claim. The researchers behind the critique argued that this makes the findings invalid, suggesting the heralded "quantum leap" was actually a false positive generated by bad code and not a product of groundbreaking physics. However, Microsoft is pushing back hard against these allegations. The Redmond giant has formally rejected the criticism, saying that it's just a minor anomaly rather than a fatal flaw. According to the company, while there may have been a minor oversight in the data parsing scripts, it does not alter the fundamental reality of their physical experiment. Just weeks ago, Microsoft unveiled the Majorana 2 quantum processor, a milestone so significant that the company boldly accelerated its timeline for a commercial quantum supercomputer from 2035 down to 2029. But the new software allegations reopen an old wound. Microsoft's quantum division faced a remarkably similar crisis when a landmark 2018 paper on Majorana particles was famously retracted in 2021 after independent physicists discovered the data had been inappropriately cropped. That historical baggage makes the current Python-related allegations particularly sensitive. If the foundational math and data processing for the 2025 breakthrough are genuinely flawed, the highly anticipated 2029 commercial timeline could easily be delayed or, worse, cancelled.

    • AMD releases hotfix for driver install issues on Windows 10 PCs by Taras Buria Earlier this week, AMD released an important graphics driver update. Version 26.6.2 brought AMD FSR 4.1 support to the previous-gen Radeon lineup, the RX 7000 series, giving users better upscaling tech that was previously locked to the newest GPUs. However, the driver turned out to be a little buggy, with users reporting installation issues on systems still running Windows 10. AMD quickly acknowledged the bug and today released a hotfix to resolve the problem. The AMD 26.6.3 Hotfix update is now available for download from the official website. Given that it is a hotfix release, it has only one change in its release notes: AMD announced the update on its official X account and added that a WHQL driver update with the necessary fixes would be released next week. Meanwhile, users can apply the hotfix or roll back to the previous driver using the official AMD Cleanup Utility. You can download AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition 26.6.3 Hotfix Preview Driver from the official website here. It is compatible with all currently supported graphics cards and 64-bit Windows 10 and 11. Full release notes are available on the same page.
    • With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11! I guess we all need a good laugh now and again...
