    Overclocking guides

    Anyone know any good guides to overclocking on the internet? Things seem to have changed quite a bit since my last few outings a few years ago, to say the least. The fundementals are the same but the whole memory timings and memory dividers etc are confusing me some what when it comes OCing. Not to mention all the extra voltages that we never used to have to worry about. So i am looking for idiots up to experienced guides. Every guide i have read, especially in magazines, just leaves me with more questions than when i started. They sell themselves as 'how to overclock' then just tell you what is, rather than actually teaching you anything. Any ideas chaps?

    Seriously though, this one looks pretty worthwhile for Athlon 64s.
