    Over Clocking

    glad to see that somebody payed attention to what i said.My computer is as fast as it can go and i'm satisfied with it.To add any more memory would be negligible.It probably would'nt even be noticed.

    tbh, speaking from (not too much but quite a bit of exsperiance)

    System tweaking can do just as much performance increasing than overclocking, people overclock normally to just sit and look at "cpuz" (a small cpu detail program) and smile or to brag to mates or because they play cpu hogging games online.

    They rarely overclock for playing games/running apps that dont meet there computers requirements. Most overclockers already have v.good systems and not really ne need to overclock! some people do it for the exsperiance (like me) because it will teach them a great deal.

    Like said a couple of times in this forum memory upgrading is more worth it for the newbie overclockerers (like me) because it can save blowing up your computer etc. if u run newer games like cod, hl2, doom3, etc and have 256mb ram, slap urself , theres no point overclocking until u upgrade especially if u have XP. :haha:

    but then again u shouldnt really take advise from some1 who cant spell exsperiance :monkey:

    Any chance you could go into a bit of detail on #5? I bought a used 1.33 from someone but can only get it to run at 1 ghz. If I swap the FSB to 133 and save, the screen just goes blank and sits there...then it's set back to 100 when I power up again. Everything else is old though so could it be something with one of my PCI? My old Soundblaster Live maybe?

    Fsb

    What is the FSB of the chip you have,the 1.33?

    If it's an AMD duron 1.3, the FSB is 100. If it's something else, I don't know.
