Advice on overclocking...

[DoubleU]

Well ive built up a decent system for myself but I only bench marked around 4000. All of my stuff supposedly overclocks well.. Im just wondering what the best course of action to do is.. I have not modified or fiddled with anything. My comps ingame performance is excellent, just wondering if I can get more out of it.

OS: Windows Xp Pro
Motherboard: Abit Al8-V
Vid Card: Foxconn Nvidia 7900GS
Ram: 2X1GB OCZ Platinum DDR2 pc2-6400
Audio: Onboard
Processor: Intel Pentium D 3.4GHZ Dual Core


My motherboard has uguru which i belief is used for overclocking. Im just wondering if there are some things I can do to get more out of my system, thanks.

swap for a c2d...

also OC through BIOS, not the OS.

Definately get a C2D and iono bout that mobo. Get good cooling for the cpu too. If you can afford Tuniq tower, you should get that.

"Bench marked around 4000"? Ehm, you have to tell which mark, or else we can't use it. Benchmark is a wide term - pls :slap:
