Rightio, well, I have recently come into possession of a shiny new computer with the following specs:
CPU: Q6600
Mobo: ASUS P5N-T DELUXE 780i
RAM: 4 x 1GB Corsair DDR2 TWINX PC6400
PSU: SilverStone 500W DUAL12V Silent PSU
Graphics card: 8800GT 512MB
I have 2 120mm case fans (front and back) and the PSU, graphics card and CPU all have their retail fans/heatsinks.
Now, I've never overclocked before and find it very interesting - I want to get the most out of my system and this is where you guys come in! Basically, I was wondering if anyone could give me any pointers about what programs to use, what the highest speeds can achieve with just the cooling previously explained etc. I'm not really sure where to start so, what should my next course of action be?
