Well in 2-3 months (Sept or Dec) when they're in stock and new video cards come out for DirectX10 I'm going to upgrade.. and conore prices level out.


But, here is the scoop.

I want to get some more performance out of my p4 3.2c northwood socket 478 HT.

Should I just raise the frequency of the FSB from 200 to 205 then 210, 215 etc?
I could never get a stable oc but, then again I've never really played with it.
My ram is 3500 Kingston hyperX.
How should I go about getting the best out of my proc.. I need indepth.
Can I just keep raising the FSB or do I need to play with ram etc?
My rig stats are in my sig..


My goal is for it to last me another 2-3 years (Back up rig) but have a stable overclock preferably 3.6 Ghz range.


Thanks!
