new system potential.

[Smitho3]

Hi guys, i have just bought my new system setup and am awaiting delivery now. in anticipation i am wondering what type of clocks i can expect and how best to achieve them. i havnt overclocked anything since my Barton 2500+ so was also wondering what, if anything has changed.

New spec =

e6300
DS4
2gb corsair dominator 6400 mem
8800 gtx (BFG)
Hiper 580W Type-R Modular PSU
And a hallyminium Lian Li PC-A10B case to thorw it in.

I intend to modify the case evntually and whack some h20 in there but for the time being i am going to be using stock cooling......unless you can suggest a very good but quiet cooler.

Cheers guys.

400*7 (2.8GHz) 4-4-4-12 should be easy with that combo
Not sure how good the stock cooler but I'm using a TT120 at half speed, At 470*7 (3.3GHz) My temps after 3 hour's of sp2004 running on both cores was 56C.I found anything over 470 bus speed would really add to the heat

wow overclocking has changed. 1Ghz is easy.... any tips? anything i need to know about intel clocking (having clocked AMD since i started clocking)
