Need help to start overclocking- If you're any good, please help!
I need help to start overclocking, but don't know where to start. My specs:
XFX nForce 680i LT SLI Motherboard
Intel Pentium E2180 2.0 GHz (800MHz FSB, Dual Core)
2 GB of Corsair RAM
XFX Gforce 8600gt Video Card
Vista

32 bit
Power Supply: 500 watts
Anyway, are there any tips you guys could give me that would make my processor better for gaming?
If possible, tell me what to do exactly, or what you would do in my situation.
Thanks

Read the guide!
Disable speedstep or it might be called C1E. That will fix your muitiplier from dropping which is cuasing the change in FSB.
As far as voltage goes, when testing in OCCT small data set,are you failing? If not you have not become unstable and do not need more voltage yet.
What CPU cooler are you using?
BTW, not a good thread title to get help, but we'll try to point you in the right direction.
