<div class="IPBDescription">...</div> Hiya,

Need a little help and I couldn't find anything on this.

I currently have a 2ghz celeron CPU and I want to Overclock it for 2 reasons really, 1 cause I wanna see how fast I can get it and 2. Cause it will mean I can give it to someone and they will have a faster CPU <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Any links to tutorials or programs that can OC my CPU will be met with cookies.

I remember I used ot have a P3 450mhz OCed to 500mhz(thats what I used to play H< on)

Thanks

    A celeron? If you are lucky you might be able to up it 10 mhz.... Celerons aren't exactly the best quality... Also if you were to overclock it then you took it out of your machine and put it into another, it wouldn't remain overclocked...

    I would like some help as well. Recently I tried to overclock and I must have screwed something up becasue it wouldnt boot, so I had to reset the BIOS. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Hi! Stop now. You're going to fry your CPU. Don't even think about overclocking it again.

    Realistically if you're just bumping it up to "See how far it can go" you're going to end up "Seeing how much it costs to replace."
