March 5, 200916 yr I wouldn't say it's a must, but I use an ancient CPU, so OC'ing that and replacing the stock fan is a definite must.
March 5, 200916 yr I have my CPU OC'd for a little speed boost, along with some cheapass Rosewill cooler. I thought overclocking was retarded. At least that's what you said before. I lol'd =/
March 6, 200916 yr Overclocking IS retarded, which is why I'm doing it. That makes sense. I have no time to OC.
March 7, 200916 yr I tried it once, but my CPU kept failing. Even just 50MHz higher wouldn't work.:whip:
March 20, 200916 yr I overclock almost all of my shit when it comes to gaming rigs i like to get as much use out of them so i don't have to upgrade to often. Current setup.. Intel QX6850 QQ Extreme 3.0 (Oced to 3.6 to be safe) EVGA 750i FTW Edit Mobo OCZ Domintaors 4 gigs EVGA GTX280 SSC Video Card oced to match the speed of the gtx285 all water cooled in an Antc 1200
March 23, 200916 yr Well, when my CPU can run from 2.13 GHz to 3.20 GHz, pretty sure that's a good idea.
