hi all,
i am a newbie to overclocking and i got some questions after reading through
the guide.

i have a X2 3800, with 1.5gb of men, Asus A8n-sli motherboard

1. i am oc my FSB right now. and i dont know if this is possible, but i got my FSB up to 1296MHz. but i read somewhere in a different guide that my fsb shouldnt go above 1000mhz. so now i'm confused where my fsb should be. (also its running at 45 degree C with Prime95).. i know that my HT is 2000mhz, but i cant find the limit for the fsb

2. was is the different between the "multiplier" and the HTT multipier?

3. is Prime95 suppose to stress my CPU to 100%? because my comp show me that its only running at 50%

3. i have 1.5 gb of pc3200 memory, and since i start to try to oc my comp, it has reduced to 512mb! please tell me how i can fix this problem.

i sure have tons of questions left, but these are the ones that i'm encountering right now. thanks a lot for your time.

I have a: S939 MSI K8N NEO4-F PRI EXPRESS

On the setup for the temperature moniter there is K8T Neo and K8N Neo Platinum. When I select Platnum it says my CPU Temp is 260F or 127C, this can't be right . When I select K8T Neo I have 93F or 34C, what one is correct?

I think the latter.

hi, im also a newbie on overclocking, would overclocking with my specs show any noticible improvement in performance? i also dont want to shorten the life span of my cpu at all (who doesnt?).

Hi. Great thread. This link in the first page isn't working anymore:

"You should check out this thread to see what kind of overclocks to expect"

Could you provide a current link?

Thanks,
Harold
