    @oreno11 That is because overclocking is pushing your PC/Computer to the limit. If you do not have proper cooling, your PC may be in danger. And your mother bord can burn up. Also overclocking is not handy with all PC. Unlike mine.

    @oreno11 OK thanks Oreno. I have an i7 860 2.8 GHz, and I’m planning to overclock it to about 4 GHz, using somebody elses settings. But therefore I need a new mobo, and I’m planning to by the Gigabyte P55-UD4. You recommend that one to me? And you could please tell me what would be a sufficient cooling for such an overclock? Thanks in advance again.

    @arjennovic u can’t overclock this kind of motherboards. Bad luck for you. Try to buy a different MOBO, like ASUS, GIGABYTE, MSI, compatible with your CPU if u really want OVERCLOCKING your CPU.

    When I bought my pc, I’ve been very stupid to buy an Acer instead of builing one myself. So that means I don’t have MB Intelligent Tweaker of whatever in my BIOS. Is there still a way to get those options in your BIOS. Maybe a BIOS download? Help me please and thanks in advance. BTW great tutorial, it would really help me a lot of I had those overclocking options.

    I have a TwinMOS DDR2 2x2GB setup.. From what I’ve seen with Speccy, is numbers that go 5-5-5-15, DRAM 400Mhz, Dual Channel etc. What could I take from all of this lol :P ! Do I have RAM at 800Mhz each then? If so, then could/should I take it upto 1066/1333Mhz? Please respond :)

    Okay, I’m starting to get this. i7 950- So for over clocking JUST the CPU I focus on the voltage and the base clock only? That’s all? My goal is 4GHz Cooling is not a problem

    I need some information for my overclocking.
    Is there something like a maximum for your CPU voltage, and if there is would it be wrong to go higher then that?

    @LegionShade

    Don’t blame overclocking, you’re an idiot for leaving the voltage on automatic.

    lol the first time I OC’ed was with the CPU level up function and suddenly my ram was at 1.7 Volt , while 1.65 Volt was the maximum , I instantly lowered it to 1.5 Volt so there’s an example that auto overclocking still doesnt work 100% ..

    hi in my bios it gives me the option add mghz to my cpu but i cant go any higher cos i cant find my vcore in the bios i found all the voltages that it will let you change but none of them are called vcore so dose that mean i cant change the vcore or is it called something else ? PLEASE HELP ME !!
