Basic CPU Overclocking
What is basic CPU
overclocking ? How can you do this ? What are the risks ? What
do you need to look out for ?
CPU overclocking can
be a difficult subject to grasp, especially for the non techie,
to get down to this technical level there is no question that
you will really need to know what you are doing, you are taking
the life of your pc in your hand and a computer not clocked
properly could be permanently damaged.
Gaining a CPU speed
increase effectively speeds up your pc beyond manufacturers
specifications, a bit like performance chipping a turbo charged
car.
After successful CPU clocking your pc will experience a whole
new lease of life, and many processor tasks will be quicker, but
due to the extra CPU speed more heat will be generated which can
be a problem if there is inadequate cooling for the processor.
To begin our clocking you will need to go into your BIOS.
This can be accessed
by rebooting your pc and generally hitting either Del or F2
keys, but this can vary depending on manufacturer.

Now you need to look
for the front side bus settings or FSB, from here you can force
the processor to run faster, but don't get too carried away
trying to make a processor run too fast or as mentioned before
you will damage your system.
A much simpler way of
CPU overclocking is to purchase a motherboard with CPU clocking
software, manufacturers such as Gigabyte can provide this.
Now you simply test
you processors extra performance by using the application 3D
mark, be sure to run it before and after overclocking your CPU
Before testing basic overclocking on your home pc it's
worth trying it on an older pc that you don't mind destroying if
worst comes to worst.
