How to Overlock the CPU to get much faster?


Recommended Posts

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going to be noticeably faster even if he brought it to 4 ghz, since the Celeron is a crippled P4, and the P4 is grossly outdated by today's standards.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?"

oh thanks, I thought this was a general statement, do you think I can personally overclock to a higher speed ?

But high clock speed are not available on the new processor!

then how can we do our work @ high clock speed!

please say me the way to get high clock speed!

as of now i would not think of such a thing .. first of all with all the new advents in technology now ..with the ssd drives and new generation gpus being offered ..seems it would be a waste .. most hardware you are using right now ...unfortunately will be obsolete ..unless you really are a hardcore fan of the conventional drives

there are a whole new group of processers being tested and soon will be ready for deployment ... looks like the cpu will need to catch up way i see it...

It depends on your cooling setup. If you have the stock heatsink & fan, I wouldn't push it much further than you already have. Simply adding a decent aftermarket heatsink will allow you to push your CPU much further.

I have the stock heatsink and fan ..Thanks for your help.

man

listen

u want SPEED??

BUY A NEW PC!! PERSONAL COMPUTER! trust me U will get ALL THE SPEED U IMAGINING!

TRUST ME!

i had a pretty dated computer. And i never overclocked it. I got a brand new PC a month ago

U can see my signature for SPECS: AND I DUN WANT TO OVERCLOCK BECAUSE ITS TOO FAST ALREADY :)

Trust me im a happy buyer ..

get a new pc..

im coming from AMD athlon XP.. which was faster then celerons.. so imagine how much FAST ull feel :p

Goodluck

Get PREBUILT COMPUTERS

..

( BEST ADVICE: find a good GEEKY friend who can help u with all this) my friends always take me to Hafeez Centre which is the biggest computer Centre in Lahore.. and i help them building computers.

Don't encourage him please, LN should be used by professionals only. Not 15 year old kids who don't know what they are doing.

If he thinks he's going to jump right into LN2 cooling without even knowing how to water cool to begin with then all the power to him!

I wish him luck.

How come the threads I start don't get these many replies? Where have I gone wrong?

Well, for starters you're using question marks instead of exclamation marks!

You need to end every sentence, with an exclamation mark! And by every, I mean questions too!

Got it!

Liquid Nitrogen can probably be acquired from a university in your area.

This.

To the OP: Don't forget to buy heavy duty gloves for handling that large steel canister of liquid nitrogen; you'll thank me later.

Pfft, safety equipment isnt necessary. just suck the liquid nitrogen through a tube with your mouth, then spit it out onto the cpu.

i know the prices

i want the procedure to do!

Click on the link below and read the instructions on your screen is how you buy a computer. If you have trouble with that give us your credit card number and your address and we will buy for you.

Just like Cartman did to get semen for free in a back alley from a guy in the sea people episode of South Park!

    • Look up "greed". If you are willing to buy that it's only inflation, I've got a bridge to sell you.

    • Steam Summer Sale 2026 kicks off offering weeks of PC game discounts by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Every year, one of the biggest events that Valve hosts is the Steam Summer Sale. Now, the 2026 edition has just kicked off, bringing discounts for everything from the newest games and retro gems to all sorts of DLC packs. As always though, PC gaming hordes have managed to shake the servers of Steam just as the sale opened its doors, so expect the prices, store pages, and services to not show up properly for some time till the backend stabilizes. You'll find sales being present, though with minor cuts, for even relatively recently released titles this time. The front page is the place to be for anyone looking for recommendations, with it putting a spotlight on fresh games every day. However, keep in mind that the discounts themselves will not be changing and will remain static throughout the sale. Blockbusters like Clair Obscur Expedition 33, Split Fiction, Red Dead Redemption II, Battlefield 6, Dispatch, Baldur's Gate 3, Resident Evil Requiem, Anno 117, Arc Raiders, Black Ops 7, Kingdom Come: Deliverance II, and much more are currently discounted. Valve has also brought back the special "Deep Discounts" section. While part of this same sale, it only highlights games that are discounted by at least 85%, with some titles even reaching 95% off. Some of the games included here are The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, Watch Dogs 2, Far Cry 4, Wreckfest, Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, The Quarry, Ghostwire Tokyo, Call of Duty: Modern Warfare II, and much more for just a few dollars each. The Steam Summer Sale of 2026 will be open for business until July 9, giving everyone two whole weeks to try and keep their wallets closed. If you want to see the biggest highlights, be sure to read our Weekend PC Game Deals special coming this Saturday.

    • Google reshuffles its AI coding team as it struggles to catch Anthropic by Karthik Mudaliar Google is already reorganizing the AI coding “strike team” it created roughly two months ago, as it attempts to find ways to close the gap with Anthropic in one of generative AI’s most commercially important areas. According to The Information, Google DeepMind is expanding the team’s focus to include “midtraining,” rather than concentrating only on coding tools and agents. Midtraining takes place after a model’s broad initial training but before the final stages that prepare it to follow instructions and perform specific tasks. In simple terms, it gives developers another opportunity to expose a model to carefully selected data before it is polished for release. That could help Google improve Gemini’s underlying coding abilities instead of relying only on better prompts, interfaces, or post-training. Previous research has found that midtraining can be particularly effective for code and mathematics, where models must move from general language knowledge to more structured tasks. Google reportedly created the original strike team in April. It was led by Google DeepMind research engineer Sebastian Borgeaud, who previously worked on model pretraining, and focused on complex, long-running programming jobs. Google co-founder Sergey Brin and Google DeepMind chief technology officer Koray Kavukcuoglu were also reportedly involved in the effort. DeepMind researchers were said to believe that Anthropic’s coding tools were outperforming Google’s Gemini models, prompting the company to give the project more attention. Anthropic has made coding a central part of its AI strategy through Claude Code and its Claude model family. The company has continued improving that area, with Claude Opus 4.8 offering upgrades for coding and other agentic tasks, along with the now-unavailable Mythos and Fable models. The reshuffle also comes at a time when Google faces increased competition for AI researchers. Gemini co-lead Noam Shazeer recently announced that he was leaving Google for OpenAI, while two other researchers who contributed to Gemini and DeepMind projects are reportedly preparing to join Anthropic. It remains unclear whether the reorganized team will produce a new public Gemini model or developer product. No release date, team size, or specific performance target has been disclosed.
