    Hey,

    I've got a friend who just purchase a new computer and here are the specs:

    Gigabyte GA-785GM-US2H Rev 1.1
    AMD Phenom II X2 555 BE
    Gigabyte GE-N500A-C2 PSU
    Xigmatek HDT-SD964 CPU Cooler
    CoolerMaster Elite 335 Case
    OCZ DDR2 PC2-5400 Vista Upgrade 4GB

    He wants to overclock the CPU and the IGP but doesn't want to burn anything yet. So, I told him to use the Autoclock feature in the AMD overdrive application. The IGP is running at 500Mhz right now, and he wants to safely overclock it. He is using stock chipset cooling, so, any suggestions?

    Thanks,
    Josh :)
