"Overclocking_Tutorial Overclocking takes on 3 forms: First, is the casual overclocking, easy, and anyone can do it. Second, is the right way to overclock, taking into account, everything. Third, if you want serious power, your gonna need to be savy to what does what. The casual overclocker gains about 5% increase, and really doesn’t see any benefit from this, whil The correct way to overclock, is to start looking at your system, check the motherboard specs, PSU Lets take a base system like my old system setup: AMD XP1700+ ( Thoroughbred JIUHB DLT3C ) Core Voltage = 1.50v Maximum Die Temp = 90c FSB = 266Mhz (factory unlocked) Jetway K266B KT266 chipset DDR + SDR RAM (not together) No onboard RAID DDR RAM = Dane Elec PC2700 DDR (333Mhz) Not registered 2 Hard drvies 1 CD Writer & 1 DVD ROM drive 2 LAN cards 1 PCI soundcard (onboard sound turned off). Now, lets look at what they can do: The Thoroughbred is still the top processor for overclocking, Thunderbirds are just not upto it, e (for the purpose of space, I’ll not go into unlocking your CPU) As you can see, my Thoroughbred has a core voltage of 1.5v, and as my motherboard is capable of gi The FSB on my motherboard is capable of a max of 200Mhz (this is the magic number). Die temps to a max of 90c is good (never been near it, yet!). Now, to work out your Mhz on your system, or to check your multiplier or FSB, there is a little ca Your Mhz is worked out by your multiplier timed your FSB. example: CODE 133x10 = 1.33Ghz Of course you can devide your Mhz with your known FSB to give you your multiplier etc. Now for easy, I have the results of my previous unlocking tests handy, so I’ll use them, and not t Standard Multiplier = 11.0 Overclocked Multiplier = 12.0 Standard Voltage = 1.50v Overclocked Voltage = 1.52v Standard FSB = 133Mhz Overclocked FSB = 136Mhz Standard Speed = 1467Mhz Overclocked Speed = 1630Mhz Standard Temps = CPU = 37c SYSTEM = 32c (idle) CPU = 44c SYSTEM = 36c (under load) Overclocked Temps = CPU = 34c SYSTEM = 29c (idle) CPU 40c SYSTEM 34c (under load) As you can see, the system is cooler when overclocked, this is due to having the correct cooling s Basically, all I have done, is raised the FSB by 3mhz, the voltage by 0.02v and the multiplier by To achieve this, it took me about a week, and this is how I did it: I started by lowering the multiplier to 5.0, from there I raised the FSB to its max (at the time, From there, I started to raise the multiplier one by one, getting it back upto the standard multip (currently I am way passed the 136Mhz FSB, as I am running PC2700 DDR). One thing to look at though, overclocking using the FSB WILL (unless your system allows you to spe Even raising it by 3Mhz can make your PCI cards to not work, and your RAM to get confused and cras Now your thinking to yourself ’I can do that’ and yes you can, anyone can, but....... It takes TIME, I can’t stress that enough, if your going to try this, then you’ll need to run your For your information, I used Hot CPU Tester, SETI & played Vietcong for testing purposes. Now, for the hard part: As most experienced overclockers will tell you, heat is your enemy, killing heat is your number 1 There are several ways of dispersing heat, and they are: Aircooling Pro’s: Cheap, effective at lower speeds. Con’s: Noisey, dust collectors, need maintanance. Watercooling: Pro’s: Can lower your CPU by about 10c easily. Con’s: It has water in it, expensive, hard for some to understand. Pelter: Pro’s: With watercooling, it’s the daddy Con’s: ONLY EXPERIENCED PEOPLE NEED TO APPLY, very complicated, power hungry, NOT for the faint he Aircooling: Upgrading your CPU fan is the first step, there are several companies that offer aftermarket fans, Watercooling: Its easier than most make out, its a good thing, kit prices can be got from about £120 ($200 US), Modern day kits & parts are idiot proof, and will not leak, unless you act like Noah. Pelter: Pelter cooling is DANGEROUS, minly for your system, fitting it incorrectly, and you could end up w Ask your local overclocking expert for more info. Basically, if you can get hold of a decent Thoroughbred cored XP, your in luck (just like me), if I’d advise ANYONE thinking of overclocking, to research into it more, weigh up the odds on what th Most of the time, its not about ’mines faster than yours’ or massive speed increases, its done by great tutorial. this should help the OC noobs. If I can add something like you said know your spec Indeed, if you are serious about your overclocking, its advised you only use serious brand names. Generic parts are always a lower spec, and can easily destroy themselves with even a little stress Memory advice, use the folloing: Kingston (added because of reviews, personally, I’m not sure about them). Crucial (for Dual Channel DDR ONLY) OCZ Mushkin Corsair PNY (for EEC rated) Samsung Geil (my choice, when I can afford it) Motherbord advice, use the following: Asus A7N8X Deluxe nForce2 Asus A7N8X-VM nForce2 Asus A7N8X-X nForce2 Abit KD7-S KT400 Abit KV7 KT600 Abit NF7 v2.0 nForce2 Abit NF7-S v2.0 nForce2 MSI K7N2 Delta-L Nforce2 MSI KT6 Delta-LSR KT600 Epox 8RDA+ nForce2 Epox 8RGA+ nForce2 Any nForce2 motherboard would be best, they allow more score for overclocking your system. _________________ This is a demo version of txt2pdf PRO v.9.2 Developed by SANFACE Software http://www.sanface.com/ Available at http://www.sanface.com/txt2pdfPRO.html ..."
