OverClocking Xp 3000+

Blaze309 · 16-May-04, 04:07 AM

I'm thinking about overclocking my Xp3000+ after i get a SLK 900 (A) and a tornado fan.

So what i was wondering is how high i can go on this?
I have A78Nx Deluxe Mobo and 2 sticks of 512 Corsair.

This is what i really want to know... be truthful please.. can overclocking harm your computer in any way? It's fine as long as it's running at a low tempature correct? And harms nothing?

Dude, you need to search the forums. Don't be lazy, find the answers yourself; its more rewarding that way.

If you decide you can OC, and you run into problems, we will be happy to help you out.
However, we are not responsible if you harm your system after you start overclocking. Overclock at your own risk! You also need to decide whether OCing worth voiding all your warranties.

yes remember to overclock at your own risk, when you are overclocking madly then you are expecting some problems, even if your getting real nice temps.

My amd 2500+ Mobile just packed up on me for no reason, luckly for me i am sending it back to the manufacturer

*phew*
But yes, always remember that some things can void ur warranty

Peace,

Right now it's running at 11x200 and that's the highes i can get it to go. Any higher and it says memory test failed and won't boot up. So what can i do to get higher overclocking speeds?
