I am currently running an AMD Athlon 64 3200+ with an Asus A8N-SLI motherboard. The default speed is 2.0 GHz (200 clock frequency with a x10 multiplier). I wanted to play around with overclocking so i gradually increased my clock frequency. I started with 205, then went up to 220, then up to 240. I saw basically no improvement over these 3 increases. In addition, my CPU temperature basically was the same(38C), so i decided to up it more. I put it up to 260, and then the computer would not boot, it would get to the end of POST, then restart, so i lowered it to 250. At 250, my computer was quite noticeably slower. What am I doing wrong here? Overclocking is supposed to make a computer faster, not slower! Please help.
