Well I just bought a new system and today I got it all put together and I was a bit curious if I was doing the overclocking correctly. I havnt really done fine tuning overclocking ever and I wanted to run it by you guys to see if how i did it was ok...
Specs:
AMD PII x4 955, MSI nf980-g65 mobo and 4gb Gskill ripjaw 1600 with a TRUE cooler
All I did in the bios was up the core clock to 244 and increased the cpu v to 1.490, ram v 1.6 and NB v to 1.3. Is this ok process these days for overclocking by just upping the the core clock, voltages and not touch any other multipliers?
I did look up info on other people overclocking this board and chip and they all changed multipliers intead of just doing the core clock speed like I did. This is why I am polling you guys to see if what I did is an accepted method for doing an overclock.
Thanks for the advice/opinions and thanks for helping out an OC'ing noob.
