Im sorry if this pisses anyone off but please bare with me. Im new to oc'ing and i need a bit of help. Heres what my settings are and what they can be adjusted to.
The following is taken straight from my BIOS.

Current CPU Clock - 3000MHz
Current DDR Memory Frequency - 533MHz
High Performance Mode - Optimized Available Options - Optimized or Manual
Dynamic Overclocking - Disabled
Adjust CPU FSB Frequency 200 Available Options - PSB 800 - Min=200Mhz Max = 500Mhz
CPU Ratio CMOS Setting - 15
Adjusted CPU Clock - 3000
Adjust DDR Memory Frequency - Auto Available Options - Auto or 400Mhz or 533Mhz
Adjust DDR Memory Frequency - 533
Adjusted PCI Frequncy - 33.3
Adjusted PCI Express Frequency 100 Available Options - Min=100Mhz Max=133Mhz
Adjust CPU Voltage (V) - 1.3875
Adjust DDR Voltage (V) - 1.85
Adjust NB Voltage (V) - 1.55
Spread Spectrum - Enabled Available Options - Disable

This color is current setting.
This color is optional setting.
 
cpu ratio is prob not going to do anything unless your a lucky bastard who has a ES
you want to turn off spread spectrum and set preformance to manual, then up the fsb of the cpu, keeping a eye on temperature, do it in small increments and stress testing after each increment, depending on how high you want to go you may need to adjust voltage, but find out what you can do at stock first
set memory to 533
 
Thanks. What app do you recommend to stress test the stability? Or should i just leave pc on for a few hours?
 
prime95(12 hrs), prob need multiple instances, 3dmark, doom3, <insert your favorite game> all that matters is it doesnt crash on you when your gaming in end dont it :cool:
 
Im afraid to do it cause when i go into my bios the cpu temp says 80c/170c. Does the slash mean 80 of a possible 180?
