Hey all you experienced overclockers out there - I'm wondering if all of you can't make some suggestions as far settings go for overclocking my rig -- specs are listed in the sig, but here they are in more detail:
Intel Pentium 4 3.0C Northwood Retail
Abit IC7-G w/replaced Northbridge cooler (as seen on the IC7-MAX3) BIOS 24
Corsair XMS TwinX PC3200LLPT (2 sets of matched pairs) 4 x 256mb = 1 GB
I'd like to do some modest overclocking and I'd like to stick with my stock cooling ---
I've tried using Abit's game accelerator settings in the bios for the memory, but the system locks on Windows loadup if I select anything other than "auto" - also, I can manually set the RAM latencies ( 2-3-2-6) but shouldn't my corsair be able do better than that? Any lower than that and the computer doesn't even make it to post....
So, some suggested settings would be appreciated.... I've never messed with overclocking before, so if you could assume I don't know 'the little things', I would appreciate it ----
