P4 newbie overclocking

Ok, I'm a p4 newbie, I've always run AMD before, and overclock them without too many hassels, so are there any differences between clocking an intel p4 and an AMD chip ?

My setup (when it arrives) p4c 3.2Ghz Asus p4c800 (std not deluxe, couldnt afford delux after the 3.2 ;) ) 2x256MB pc4000 RAM, Aerocool 102 hs fitted with 2 x 25cfm 80mm fans.

I know multi's are locked on p4's, so its fsb only, hence the pc4000, temps as always are what to watch. The main thing I'm curious about is voltages, I hear p4's aren't quite upto the same kind of abuse as AMD chips, so its gentle on the vcore, but what vcore is safe? and keep temps below 60, or lower ?

Thx.

Well, P4s are fine up to 1.7vish... although I wouldnt run it at that for 24/7 use.

Should be a nice set-up, what gfx card do you have to go with that? :)

Thx for the advice, I'll be gentle, 1.65v ok for 24/7 if temnps are quite low?

Gfx is 9800se AiW @ pro - get 18.5k in 3dmark 2k1se in my Barton @ 2.3Ghz, should get a bit higher in new setup ;)

1.725v is the limit you should stick to......

I wouldn't go over 1.65V 24/7, the newer Northwoods tend to hit a brick wall on the overclock, increasing the voltage usually doesnt do much unless you are on Phase change
