2700+(currently set)
3200+
and user define.
I have zero knowledge in overclocking and I'm also not interested in doing it if my comp's life span will be cut in half (or something like this).
So what do you guys think, how exactly do I overclock and will it reduce the CPU's lifespan? |
Overclocking is a serious buisness and shoudnt be taken lightly and in such a manner. If you REALLY want to learn to overclock I suggest you check out EOCF.COM and follow the first google link. In there your will find countless guides on how to go about learning to OC and what to expect when you do so and a general level of performance that can be attained.
To be brutally honest its time for a new rig imo. Current dual-core tech prices are at an all time low, it coudnt be a better time to build a new rig yourself. If you have the brain power to work out how to fire a fish manually in SH3/4 then you can build your own rig easy peasy. Its no harder than mechano, it just requires a small bit of technical knowledge
