Hey and welcome to GTG. Did you buy your computer from a store like Dell or HP? If so you wont be able to OC your computer. If not check out this guide: How to OverClock, thats how i learnt to OC. Good Luck.

hi again, i upped the mhz and now it shows 2.6 on pc mark.how do you tell what tempreture the cpu is running at?

Is it worth enabling hyper threading?and if so how do i go about that ?

the pc is an optima which i think is a custom ibm but i am only guessing there, when i bought it i did tell them what i wanted put in it, as in ram, cpu ect and have just replaced the gforce64meg graphics card with a radeon 9600.

Thx again
