Greetings all,
I was considering a cheap processor upgrade but I am aware that my existing chip has a good core for overclocking. I am a complete overclocking virgin, despite having a lengthy tech background, so I thought I would seek your advice before going ahead. I guess what I am looking for is a complete beginners guide that explains everything in relative layman's terms. I will try to provide you with as much info on my setup below...
Antec 902 tower
Thermaltake air Cooler with Arctic Silver
Intel i7 720 Bloomfield 2800Mhz (AIDA64 confirms it as a D0 chip)
Asus PT6 SE Mainboard
6Gb Corsair 1333 Dominator Ram
AMD Radeon 6950 2Gb Card
I have CPU-Z installed as well as AIDA64 Extreme if you need any more info.
Currently my cores are running at an average heat of 50c.
I am not looking to push things to the limit but if I can get any sort of performance increase then that would be great.
Any help would be most appreciated
