i dont know much about overclocking..but i think my processor can use more juice with my 8800GT. Back in the day i remember bumping the FSB on my computer that gave me a little more mhz. I dont know if this is still possible on more modern computers. like i said i dont know anything about overclocking and multipliers..just wondering if its possible to bump up my fsb and get a few more mhz. if its even worth it. specs in sig.thanks

4200+ x2 overclock????

4 gig RAM?
I am fairly new to OC also, I have a 4400+ running 2.2Ghz at stock, I lowered the multiplier from 11 to 10, and bump up the FSB to 250. But messing with FSB also effects RAM and mobo, might have to change the RAM ratio (forgot what its called). Since in my case my mobo is not limiting the FSB, all I have to do is make sure either RAM or cpu doesn't exceed the limit, using trial and error with torture test, it if crashes lower the setting, if it doesn't push it even more, until the sweet spot is found, and the computer should be running stable at its top speed.
I am no good/experienced OCer, so you might get better feedback from the pros
