I was wondering.. how could i overclock the h*ll out of my pentium 4 processor? I hear some people saying that they can get over 2.4 ghz on their P4 processors. Also.. if i do overclock.. will my computer overheat or anything like that? -I have a XP Home edition with SP2 -Intel Pentium 4 Processor running at 1.66 ghz -20 GB HD -256 ram -GeForce 2 MX video card (It sucks) -Integrated audio card -DVD drive -CD burner -250 watt power supply thanx.

Not going to happen, because you have a mainstream namebrand pc which limits any abilty to go into your bios and overclock it, because 99% of namebrand pc's use a custom bios the locks all of those features out. The only 2 things you can do is... 1. Use clockgen a software overclocker but considering you will not be able to lock the pci/agp mhz, adjust the vcore, FSB from the bios then clockgen isn't going to be much use you may be able to squeeze out 100mhz more from that program, but it's not going to make any diff. 2. Upgrading the processor itself. AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ OC 2.7ghz 2GB Dual Channel DDR 3200 Nvidia 7900GT SATA II 2x 300gig 7200rpm 16mb cache RAID-0 Gigabyte Nforce 4 SLI

Increase your RAM to at least 512MB and you will see a faster machine. Faster than it'll get with any overclocking, even if your board supported it. Kailas Shastry 3000+ Venice, A8N-E, 768MB DDR266, 160GB Barracuda, 380W Cooler Master

Yeah.. im saving some money for a 512 mb ram upgrade. Im completely broke. Thanks for the help.
