I have a Intel Pentium 4 640 3.2Ghz on a dfi Lanparty 925x-t2 motherboard and wondering about how to successfully overclock. In the BIOS i have the genie feature where you can change the clock speed and voltage and everything. It lets you change the FSB to between 200 to 380 and then all other settings can be set on auto. I've got the Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro and at idle my temp is 30 degrees so its pretty cool. I'm wondering if there is a guide for Pentium 4's on the forums and by just changing the FSB and keeping everything else on auto does this work fine and safe? Cheers i'm a bit of a noob when it comes to overclocking!

If you have DDR2 rated above PC3200 then set the ram to 1:1 (it may be called 200mhz ddr) then raise the FSB testing as you go with prime 95/OCCT if it becomes unstable raise the voltage a little and test again keeping your eye on the temps.
