Overclocking(help plz)

[Jack_Karverboy]

I have 6 fans on my case, I already oced my processor to 1.8 GHz, How much more can I OC it?

P.S. It was originally 1.4 GHz

Are you actually being serious though?

Are you actually being serious though?

Yes he is and I would agree with him. Try the general hardware forum for an more indepth answer

Well, eveyone overlcoks diffently.

Tell me...
1) What is your fsb and multiplier
2) what is your vcore
3) what are your idle and load temps
4) what ckind of memory do you have?
5) what timings is your memory at now?

if the orginal clock was 1.4 GHZ and your up to 1.8 GHZ, that's +400MHz or a 28% increase !! , that's pretty good by OC standards, anything more than 20% is a home run in my book. when you get closer to 33% or 50% you start talking about things like water cooling and/or massive amounts coper heatsinks etc...
it may be time for a new CPU/mobo combo if you are maxed out on FSB/multiplier.
BUT - judging by your tag line, I would concentrate on a new video card, that 5900 is most likely the biggest roadblock to the eye candy nirvana you seek.
