First time overclocking...any good?

[cu3ed]

Hi still really new to this, so was wanting a few opinions, be gentle

Started to overclock my Cpu, and so have managed to get my Intel Pentium 4 640, orginally 3.2 to run at 3.66, totally stable, on a full load its sits at a cool (lol i dont know), 50o, is this any good?

GPU i got the Ati tool (very handy!), and got my X800 GT to
Core 500.73, Memory 500.73, again stable.

Is this any good?

Also was gonna give RAM ago, but i just cant get my head around it!, is their anything to read that really spells out how to go about it?

I currently use GeIL 2GB (4x512MB) PC5300 667MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit, but i literally just clicked them in and havent touched them, is their any room for improvment here?

Thanks in advance!


And HEY, this is in the wrong forum DOH...mods dont move just delete as ill post in the appropriate forum.

It would mainly depend on your idea of "Stable".

Good point, no crashes, no hangups, no sudden out of the blue resets, handles a full load for longish periods of time with no problems.

The problem with value RAM is that it is generally value for a reason.Lower scaling chips etc.You could run it on a divider to see how far it will go.
