Popeye has a couple of threads you should check out, but before we can advise you we need to know the specs of your cpu and you m/b.



Basic Overclocking


Overclocking Tools

probably, lot depends on the m/b, there might not even be any options in bios you can change.

just remember when u overclock you are running lots of things faster and in a sense you shorten the life span of mb compared to running at normal use right?

There should be a default settings or load default settings option in your bios.

Default overclocking

Before you ask questions like this, try to remember, we cannot see your PC. Is it a laptop, is it a tower? Who made the PC? Is it a white box(home made) or a dell or HP? Model number? MotherBoard model, CPU? These are the things people need to know. Some computers allow you to tweak BIOS, while some BIOS cannot be. Some manufacturers do not allow you to tweak those settings.
Why are you wanting to OC? Not necessary information, but what you are trying to achieve might not have anything to do with the CPU.
