afternoon, i am buying parts to build a computer. i am interested in seeing if i can "unlock" the cpu (Newegg.com - AMD Phenom II X2 555 Callisto 3.2GHz 2 x 512KB L2 Cache 6MB L3 Cache Socket AM3 80W Dual-Core Desktop Processor - C3 Revision - Processors - Desktops) but i dont really know what that means.
for overclocking, i know it is pushing parts past there designed capabilities. and that it can be done on both cpu and graphics card (Newegg.com - XFX HD-577X-ZNFC Radeon HD 5770 1GB 128-bit DDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards).
what i dont know is how to do these overclockings and unlockings. is there any specific guide on these parts i can look at, or a guide for similar/family of parts? thank you for your help.
