Overclocking

Hey guys!

Man, my bro is crazy. He has an Asus P5B duluxe - 1066FSB, with a 1.86ghz core 2 duo, and one of those mad dual heatpipe Zalman coolers.

Hes got it clocked at 3.2ghz, with the FSB total just over 1.8ghz. That is one good motherboard. Intel 965 Chipset and all.

Quite funny actually i bought a Celeron D 3.2 ghz and had it clocked at 4.6ghz with the stock cooler. Nearly reached 800fsb, but i started getting errors. 65nm cpu too..

Anyone else have any great core 2 duo over clocking stories?

overclocking is the practice of increasing the clock rate of a computer to exceed that certified by the manufacturer.

An overclocked device may be unreliable or fail completely if the additional heat load is not removed or power delivery components cannot meet increased power demands.

Many device warranties state that overclocking and/or over-specification voids any warranty, however there are an increasing number of manufacturers that will allow overclocking as long as performed safely.
