Posted March 12, 200619 yr Is anyone on here into overclocking? I have a 1.8ghz Amd Athlon Xp 2500+ Barton overclocked to a 3200+(2.2ghz). I have my geforce 6200 Overclocked by alittle bit too. Anyone else got there computers overclocked? Anyone with water cooling? Whats your favorite thermal paste? :devil:
March 12, 200619 yr yep. my 7800gt's don't like to be oc'd, but my processor (athlon 64 X2 manchester) is sitting at 2.9 mhz with a zalman 7700-CU heatsink.. also, arctic silver 5 is teh l337ness
March 12, 200619 yr yeah i also overclocked my amd +4200 X2 to about 2.6 ghz from 2.2 and overclcoked my ATi x800xl also. Aslo did a little bit of overclocking with my memory and memory timings i made lower.
March 13, 200619 yr GO into the BIOS you dumb smuck and try to find soemthing that is related to your AGP slot and from there you can up the clock speed of your card. Also, AGp sucks and i'd recomend getting PCI-Express x16 since the newer cards out now are only Pci-E since they can achieve higher clocks speeds and more pixel pipes with the slot since more lanes are open on the mobo in order to let your graphics card run at a higher standard. AGP is also more expensive so consider a different mobo in the near future.
March 13, 200619 yr Its "Their" not "There", and I have my opty 165 @ 275x10 on a zalman cnps9500 with some arctic sliver5.

Next time someone asks that, GOOGLE.COM Anyways, yeah im hoping to drop about 3k on my next computer, i desperately need an upgrade. I will probably get dual 7800's and a 4400 X2 and about 2 gigs of ram. Of course i will get a 10,000 rpm sata too :D

March 13, 200619 yr http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com Im going to overclock my video card/processor when I get them, but Im still pending on what processor/video card to get. I have a few months to decide though.
March 13, 200619 yr how can i overclock my gfx card (x800 xl AGP 8x) Download RivaTuner I have my 2500 Barton at 2.2 my 6600 at 375/625 AS5 ftw. Im jumping to Sempron when AM2 is released, the AM2 sempies btw. My friend had his 2.66 northie at 3.8 then he went AMD now hes got a 3700 at 2.9 http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com Im going to overclock my video card/processor when I get them, but Im still pending on what processor/video card to get.

March 14, 200619 yr Im probably going to save up money and buy a G80 when they are released, so Im interested to see how well they OC

AGP is also more expensive so consider a different mobo in the near future. Hmmm. VIdeo card clocking with the motherboard bios? Well, i don't exactly know what Ironic means, but i'd be VERY interested to know what changes you can make in your BIOS to overclock your video card. i have no real idea how to do this. Every BIOS i have ever seen doesn't allow you to change much more than the voltage (necessary sometimes) and the frequency of the AGP slot or the PCI-E slot. (the bus frequency is NOT the same as the gpu clock/gpu memory clock, not in the least.) I guess you'd have to be a REAL MORON to try to use something like coolbits, or ATI tool, or, you'd have to be completly RETARDED if you tried to flash the card's BIOS to a faster clocked card since you can just change it in the mobo bios. Again, please tell me how to do this. How do i change the core and memory clock frequencies of my video card using the motherboard BIOS. and by the way, if you are talking about the video card bios, please tell me how exactly i can "go into" the video BIOS. any vid card BIOS i have ever seen/edited/flashed doesn't have a menu that you can simply enter and make settings changes. I might also add that AGP 8x bus was never saturated; that means that any current card would run just as well in AGP 8x form if they made one. tsssss. get fucking real. AND TO THE OP: i've got some current stuff which is overclocked here and there, but maybe the neatest thing i've got is an unlocked 2800+ XP barton. I know it is b/c i tried it on a friends board, completly unlocked multi, just like the mobile. Problem? my motherboard can't lock the PCI bus, working on trading a friend for an Epox tho.

Its not possible to overclock your card through the BIOS, only this you can do in BIOS is set voltage or set the graphics to pci or agp slot and amperture memory size... Also the, PCI lock and agp lock for socket A is only on nforce2 chipset i believe

Also the, PCI lock and agp lock for socket A is only on nforce2 chipset i believe True for the motherboard bios, not true for video card bios. Most people prefer software based overclocking for video cards. For ati cards: ati tray tool ati tool both are good For nvidia: Rivatuner Coolbits Haven't used either in years. Personal experience? Phase change units Vacuum cleaner sounding air cooling Vcore and Vmem on GPU Vcpu on motherboard Best overclock 2.4A =>4.1ghz (unstable, stable at 3.9ghz) 9800Pro (380/340 => 512/404) now dead though

March 17, 200619 yr How far down the line is that? 6-8 months? I'm not sure it has been officially released, but I've heard things ranging from 4-8 months.
