ey i need some more tips. any other way to gain more speed? isy cooling enough.. i need some feedbacks with thermaltake spark 7.

And lastly, the 6800 has SM3.0 and DirectX 9.0c support, and the X800XT doesn't, so I say 6800 all the way!

Hello, I have followed your guide. A few questions I have.

Will upping the FSB cause more heat, or only upping the voltage?
I dont have the option to increase voltage, either the default, or i can change it to <ignore>.

Also, I have stock cooling. How much temperature for my cpu should I keep?

Heat is generated primarily from increase in voltage. Upping clock speeds will generate some heat, but more noticeably when voltage is raised. I forget what the recommendation for williamettes is, but I think it's 60C max. I wouldn't go over that under load.

Ty for replies.

I can reach my desktop at 120x17 = 2040 mhz.
However, I has no sound.
"Bad direct sound driver. Please install proper drivers or select another device in configuration"

With sound, I am only able to do 111x17 = 1887 mhz.

Anyone tell me whats wrong here?

-----
edit: seemed to fix the problem. I disabled serial port 1 and 2, and parallel port. Now it can run at 2040mhz.

However in my bios, i cant seem to find "unused pci clock, spred specrum, or the pci/agp/stat" .

[QUOTE=NoAffinity]What is overclocking?

Firstly, it is currently the mostly widely used word that does not appear in the English dictionary.

but bootylicious was added thanks to beyonce and snoop
what is this world coming to. that sucks we should all email websters

heres there link

http://dictionary.reference.com/help/contact.html
let em know that overclocking is a word

Fold for OC
Rep me for no reason

You probably don't have these options in your BIOS. And the loss of sound is due to the PCI bus not being locked. You're probably stuck with a max of 111...and even that may prove unstable once you start gaming or doing other stuff.

^Seriously, what is this world coming to? bootylicious---->

hello nob. yeah i think both factors could affect heat. my mobo has an automatic reboot feature which if it detects sudden temperature rise, it will restart your computer and it will set the bios defaults automaticlly. well my computer reboots everytime i set my FSB too high so what i do is reduce the FSB to 5mhz. also i advice you purchase a cooling fan right away. the faster fan the better. with system tmp, for me 55C is ideal. 60 is way to high.

and how would u lock your pci bus?

*NoAffinity* · 11-04-04

If you don't have the option in your BIOS, then you can't, and it will clock asynchronously with the FSB.

i overclocked my P4 1.8a to 1.9 and I hit 58 C on heavy load ( especially playing games ). Is my temp too high? i'm using stock cooling.
