Right, max voltage depends on cooling. But generaly, if you have good air cooling, you can increase it up to 20% of the stock voltage. So for you that would be 1.76v. So I'd say up to 1.75 should be fine. But that is if you have a GOOD heatsink. If not, then don't go above 1.70.

quick question though, MBM5 gives me 40 load at 1.8 should i go higher or should i not?

You can go higher temp wise. Your temps are fine, 55C is the max you want to have though.

i have a question if you ctrl+alt+del and go to processes and end all unnessicary process will this in time like decrease your cpu temp because its not doing as much?

Zipnogg

I think those are all the processes that are required to have your comp. running properly.. like Windows XP components, current programs ur using right now...

you might find some spyware in the processes, but if I were you, I'd leave them alone (quit any spyware you find though, and run a scan in safe mode).

Quick question about the guide, new to overclocking. Is the proc temp of 48 degrees while the cpu is running at max speed or while it is idle? thanks in advance.

zokus

48 while running idle is too hot. 48 degrees while running your CPU at max is safe.

That is while the CPU is at full load. Butit is a conservative max. On a really hot day I don't care too much if a CPU gets up to 50C-51C. But that usually means it's time for me to do some dusting.

I have a SEMPRON 2200 (333MHZ), can I overclocked the motherboard K7VT4A PRO jumper into 400MHZ without damaging my unit and then I will overclock on my BIOS at 200MHZ. FOR MY MEMORY at max DDR400, can I set on BIOS at 400? Please advise

DeathONator

Your motherboard and memory should deffinately be able to do it fine. What may or may not is your CPU. Your Sempron has its multiplier locked at 9. So you're increasing the stock speed of 166x9=1494mhz to 200x9=1800mhz. I think you should be able to make that overclock, but you MAY have to increase your voltage (maybe .05-.01v just see what works/what doesn't). If you are on a stock heatsink, just be careful that temps don't increase over 45-50C (AND THAT IS WHEN THE CPU IS AT 100% WORKING LOAD, NOT IDLE).
