Hi,
i never OC but i just saw its not so hard.
This is my configuration :
EPoX EP-AF570+ Ultra
AMD Athlon 64 3200+@2,0Ghz Socket AM2
GeForce 7600GS 256MB@128bit
Super-T KIT 2x512MB DDR2 667Mhz

I managed to get it to 2450Mhz by these settings
+ 50Mhz
x10
Voltage +0.1
RAM down from 667 to 533

Can i make it go on higher frequency? What must i change? On 2450Mhz i get 33*C, with 2000 - 30*C so its very stable. I have friends with Athlon64 3200+ Venice s.939 that have 2600 Mhz... But i cant ;(
How can i make it to 2600?

Not sure what options your BIOS has, but try these:

- lock the PCI-E at 100MHz
- lock PCI at 33MHz
- disable Spread Spectrum
- disable Cool 'n Quiet
- set the HT multi to 4x
- set CPU freq to 260MHz
- set CPU multi to 10x
- set RAM to 266MHz (DDR533)
- increase RAM voltage 0.10v
- increase CPU voltage if necessary

This will run the CPU at 2600MHz, RAM at approx 345MHz.

The settings you need must be on another menu/screen. I see the CPU voltage is set to AUTO...you wrote that it's set to "Voltage +0.1"?

Its was a screen made from one of my tests...
Now my config is
HT : X3
Voltage : +0.1V
CPU Freq : + 45 (=+450Mhz ~ 2450Mhz)
RAM : 533Mhz
Multiplier : X10
I cant go over 2450 :( At 2500 the computer keeps restarting... after 10 restarts it loads and says "please fix your frequency bla bla"

In the link above i saw where are the menus, but still doesnt help getting me to 2600Mhz :D
Thanks anyway :)
