Should i overclock?

Hey all,

Would like your opinion please.

I just bought a freezer 64 pro, a 4000+ san diego and an Asrock dual sata2 motherboard, im just wandering whether i should overclock it.
The reason i am having doubts is my memory is cheap PC2100 (133mhz) 2 x 512mb and my PSU is again cheap 450w.

Is there a lot of risk?

Thanks

Jamie

I have no idea who made the PSU lol! Bought it cheap because my otherone surged a while ago.

So you think its still worth it? According to Speedfan Temp 1 is 39 temp 2 44 temp 3 39 and core is 37. I just ran 3d mark 30 seconds a go so they might be higher than usual

lol yeah i definetly want to overclock but im just wandering about the rubbish PSU and Memory

If it went bang would it affect any other components?

Cool thanks for your help guys.

The psu was bought at a competitor and its one of their own.
Type "450W ATX Power Supply for AMD, P3 and P4 mainboards 20Pin" into google or yahoo and thats the supply

Hmm i clocked it to 2.52ghz with 12x 210 with ram set at 100mhz and ran prime 95 which put one of my temperatures to 51 and the core to 39 (speedfan) that seems pretty high for such a low clock, what do ya reckon?
