I'll be the first to say : "LOL at your mainstream press disinformed mind" as my QSLI Dual 9800GX2 790i based machine, with a 3.6GHz Q6600 and overclocked 8 Gig of DDR3 ticks over silently beside me, pumping crystal clear >HD resolution 16x forced AA and extreme shadow and bloom Eve goodness into my retinas.

It's not the hardware, it's how you build it and what you use along with the knowledge you use to do so.

Research it well, but your C2D will scream after cautious manipulation.

Yes of course it can OC, excellent mobo. In short, FSB speed/4 times your processor's multiplier=clock speed. To OC, you can up either FSB or the multiplier (unless you have an extreme CPU, it will be capped at its default). You may need to increase board or CPU voltages for your OC to be stable. Also, if your RAM is linked to FSB speed (I believe this is the default but I can't remember), then its clock speed will go up along with the FSB unless you unlink it or change dividers.

Once you've OCed, you're going to want to stability test it. You're going to want programs like prime95 (stresstest) coretemp (unless you have a yorkfield, then use realtemp; to measure temperature), and CPU-Z to see what your actual idle/load voltages are in windows (after vdro(o)p).

And can I be the first to say: good, you bought an nforce mobo. Don't listen to all the haters. Unless it's the 790i. Then they're probably being truthful Razz

Its full of hardware fanatics, so if you're looking for overclocking tips, that's the place to visit in my opinion. Smile The "Overclocking & Cooling" forums, aswell as the motherboard forums look like the ideal place to start.
Its also one of the few review sites that tends really stress-test the hardware they review (and that includes overclocking) regardless of what they're reviewing.

To quote from their PSU review procedures:
Quote:
HardOCPs testing methodology is intended to very much push power supplies to their advertised wattage rating in temperatures that will represent some of the hottest computer enthusiast cases. So if a unit passes all our testing it is definitely not something to take lightly. In fact we expect more power supplies to fail our testing than make it through unscathed.

i havent tried to change the fsb i dont have all the components of the computer. i bought everything and am building from scratch.

im not new to computers but i am new to overclocking. i know what fsb is but its in a different value system than processor speed what is the link exactly?

i recently bought a nForce 750i sli mother board.
in the bios settings under cpu features it says that this feature is only available on Pentium CPU's does this mean that if i have a core 2 duo processor i will not be able to over clock it?



this was an alt post to lol was soposed to post this with Xzanos
Yar! FTWYARRRR!!
