overclocking is making your CPU run at a higher frequency(Hz and in GHz) by either altering the bus frequency or the clock ratio.

frequency = bus frequency x clock ratio

It is typically easier to increase the clock ratio than the bus frequency. You have fewer problems. When you overclock you must however have the proper coolant in your computer because overclocked CPU's tend to overheat faster.

Hey soulace, the link i provided explains everything a person needs to know for cpu overclocking.

Your opinion is not needed.

lol

opinion not needed?

It's more of fact gained by experience. And if i would have looked at your link i might not have posted. But then again i did post. So people can think of my previous post as the short short version. And don't be such an asshole either. My opinion not needed... bleh!

i'm sorry.

i was negative at the time.

alright thats fine then.

<rant> why is a persons having a bad day or being depressed or whatever else is wrong them a valid excuse for being an asshole? if anything pisses me off its when a person posts something offensive and then writes it off as a bad day or some other personal bullshit </rant>

Maybe you should start a post to discuss it.

Hey i figure that this isn't the place to hold a grude. If someone appolgizes for doing something stupid, hey i'll forgive him. No need to be an ass just because someone was an ass.
