Hey Everyone.

Brand new to the website.

Ive recently got into computer gaming.

I have an IBM Netvista computer, running a 1.6GHZ P4.

Type: 6792-MAU

I want to overclock the processor, but im not sure how.

My apologies if there is already another thread for this computer.

Thanks,

Sheldawn

Welcome to the site

! Filling out your system specs would help all of us out alot.Read the FAQs, you will find alot of information there on almost everything.

The only info i can find on my computer, other then what i know is what is shown under "system" from the control panel in windows XP.

How can i find more info for you guys?

Thanks in advance,

Sheldawn

Download the CPU-Z aplication from the "downloads" section of this forum. That will give you most of the info you need to fill out your system specs in the user CP.

Here is a link for those downloads. http://www.overclock.net/overclock.p...ware-guide.htm Personally I find PC Wizard to be a nice tool to find you system specs and anything else.

Unfortionately you will not have much luck overclocking your computer as it is a propietary build.

Yeah, like pauldovi said, you can't OC with prebuilt systems.

You could probably try CLOCKGEN or something similar to that. But Bios oc'ing on a prebuilt computer just does'nt happen. Here is the link for clockgen. http://www.cpuid.com/clockgen.php
Good luck with that willimente tho!

 

[pauldovi]

Wow... you got yourself an old system! You may want to start thinking about a new build there buddy

 

[Sheldawn]

Got it for $199 Cad.

www.factorydirect.ca
