Alright, I've experienced the stock 2.5GHz and 2.8GHz overclock difference of this cpu and i wanna hit 2.9GHz or even 3GHz.

 

Right now, I am running at 2.6GHz. I entered the bios and entered 350 for the CPU frequency. I did not touch anything else apart from that.

 

Problem is, whats the next step? Im a total newbie at this kind of stuff and i wanna learn more about it with the help of you guys.

 

If you want my specs list, i can provide it for you. (give you a heads up, its terrible. LOL)

 

thanks in advance,

Sean.
