Cool Bought 5400+ BE what can i do :)?

Just bought a 5400+ Black Edition should be here in a couple hours

I fried the 4000+ processor (i think/hope) and had to get a new one so i chose this one

Hopefully its not the motherboard that I fried, ill soon find out i guess...

Anyways, I hear its really easy to get this to 3.2? and the multiplier goes as high as 16 ?!!

3.2 would be fine for me since it will run my memory at 800mhz at that speed

just need some suggestions, thanks

Higher FSB is generally a better performer since the whole system is essentially overclocked, but only in benchmarks, and just barely.

well i heard on amd architecture bus frequency is mearly a clock...no data flows actually; it is mearly a number to calulate ram\cpu speed by mobo.......and htlink has bandwidth to spare....plz correct me if i m wrong..........fsb term aplies to intel
