Ste Do not Stare at my Avatar Messages 9,578 Location Upon Gleaning Infinity Mar 5, 2008 #10 Don't use auto overclocking features. Fine, if your that bad at understanding the concepts of overclocking, then go ahead and buy a new CPU. surgeVel said: OCing these days is simple. Just do a google search for OC programs, or use nVidia's nTune. There are lots of programs out there that do automated overclocking for you. Click to expand... And no, don't use software programs either. Manually do it through the CMOS setup. Its the only way to go.
