Overclocking guide

theMaxx2099 · Jun 7, 2007, 08:20 PM

I plan to build my first computer pretty soon.

It will be used as a mainstream PC mostly but I would like to be able to play some games.
specifically Spore and Warhammer Online when they come out.

I may or may not overclock,but does anyone have any good guides?
I'd like to read up on the subject. I did a search on google,and found a few but I'd like to see if anyone has any really great ones they reccomend.
I plan on using a core 2 duo e6420 and a gigabyte GA-N650SLI-DS4
Thanks.

here are a couple good guides.. first one is REALLY old, but still good. second one has to do with LGA775 pentium 4s, will still stay the same for Core 2 Duos though.
