A8N32-SLI & FX-57 Overclock on Air

[Twincharger]

Hi

Im a complete newbie to overclocking and trying to overclock my FX-57 CPU to at least 3000Mhz.

At the moment I have managed to get to 2963Mhz with a stable system by upping the Hyper Thread Transport from 200Mhz to 212Mhz and upping the voltage to 1.55V.

I am using a ThermalTake Tornado Air CPU cooler and my case has a rear exhaust fan.

I have not even started to attempt to overclock my DDR500 Ballistix memory yet.

Is there a better way of overclocking this CPU using this motherboard?

Thanks

Nad

Thanks UKDave

I returned the HTT back to 200 and upped the multiplier to x15, the CPU is now stable at 3009Mhz!

Im running 1.525V at the moment, should I keep decreasing to see how low it can go before the system becomes unstable?

Thanks

Nad
