It says that overclocking by raising with the FSB is pretty much self-explanatory, and yet I have no idea about how to do that. How would it be done?

If you have an nVidia card (GeForce ) , it has an internal overclock facility called "CoolBits". Enable "GPU Overclock from BIOS" and use coolbits in your display settings. If you cannot see it there, download "nVHardpage" from http://www.guru3d.com and also the latest detonator drivers.
Even if you have an inbuilt GPU on mobo, you can use it, but do it carefully. |

We Gigabyte Motherboards have our own program to overclock our cpu, its called EasyTune. Look at the gigabyte site, it comes with the motherboard driver cd. Link to download if you have lost the cd

Make sure you have a gigabyte mobo first if you use that, most mobo manufactureres bundle some kind of own brand overclocking software and hardware into the boards.

hmmmm..Very interesting. Sounds like a plan to me! But it's very tempting to attempt. Yeah, you sure know your stuff.
