You have read through the stickies I'm guessing? Just they are very imformative for people starting out with Overclocking.

Set overclock profile to manual to enable all the overclocking options. Set PCI-E frequency to 101MHz just in case. Set PCI clock sync mode to 33MHz (think it should have that option).

There should be an option in the BIOS somewhere to change the HT multiplier from x5 to 4, 3, or 2. Set this to x4 until your FSB hits 250MHz and then change it to x3 if you go over 250Mhz.

ok jsut added these settings,


loaded into windows and it says my processor is 804mhz

 

[leedrummond]

i jsut5 changed the multiplyer from 4 to 7 and its gone upto 1.41ghz


What do i do now ?

 

[Jokester]

Just leave the CPU multiplier at it's max for now, you need to find the HT multiplier setting somewhere in the BIOS, that's the one you need to set to x4.

ahh right, erm i tried to find the ht multiplyer but could not find it anywhere, anybody with same bios know whre i will find this ?
