Last night I installed my Akasa Evo 33 (Which I'v had lying around for months!) and the cpu's temp idle is roughly 35 degrees on lowest fan and 42 degrees whilst in CS (Again lowest fan settings)

Last night, I also decided to try to overclock my Galaxy Glacier 6800GT using Xtreme - G drivers and it was then I realised how addictive this overclocking thing is! :o For some strange reason I felt my CPU was holding me back so here I am with CPC magazine with an overclocking guide.

But a guide is no where as good recieving advice from overclockerer's themselves :D

Just a low down of my pc spec:

Amd 64 3500+ (Venice) underneath an Akasa Evo 33 + AS5
Geil 1GB PC3200
Asus A8V Deluxe
Galaxy Glacier 6800GT (Pre fitted with artic rev and pre-clocked)
Sata Sammy Spinpoint HD
Enermax 475W PSU
All packed inside a black Wavemaster with blue side panel and Akasa amber fans and a couple of fan controllers.

Now I was just wondering what you guys think I could possibly get out of this CPU? And any tips and advice I'll need.

Thanks! :)
