Hey everyone..

New here, last time I OC'd anything it was a Celeron 300A on some a-bit board.. It's been a while.. the whole concept has been lost on me.. My current athlon t-bird 1.4 is getting a lil old.. plus my HD was dying so I figured.. fawk it.. i'll build a new PC..

Here's what I'm getting:

Abit NF7 Nforce 2 Audio Lan ATA133

2x CORSAIR DDR400 PC3200 512MB

AMD ATHLON 2500+ Mobile

Vantec VA4-C7040 HSF

Antec Performance II SX635BII case w/350W power supply

ATI/Sapphire Radeon 9600 256M DDR

Seagate 120GB 7200RPM 8MB

What kinda OC results can I expect with this setup .. air cooling only.. Also.. could someone explain to me raising the multiplier / core / voltage...

How bout OC'n memory as well??

Probably be easiest to throw some settings that work .. I can try with those and play around after that...

Does it make a diff when you OC?? Should I do it before / after I install windows??

Anyways, lookin aroun on this board, there's obviously tons of knowledgable people, any info / help you can provide will be appreciated..

thanks..

Raise the frequencies in small amounts, make SURE and test for stability. The sticky thread at top of this page tells everything about OCing.

You have the perfect OC system I'd DEFINATLEY raise that up
