    AMD processors can be overclocked to sum great extents....

    Today morning @ 12.00 a.m I started overclocking my CPU,and i finished with testing it @ 1.00 a.m.[Since i only hav to adjust the FSB and ma Motherboard do the rest tweaking-memory,cpu VID etc-, sothat it was easy]
    I use an AMD Athlon 64 3200+[venice,512KB L2,Socket 939].It runs @ 2000MHz default.I oced it into 2700MHz it didnt crashed @ any games or video rendering.But i was littlebit afraid of so much and lowered it into 2500MHz.Coz i havent ran very very hard tests.

    There r the ram tweaks for OCing[at least in my mobo]
    MCT timing:-CL,TRC,TRFC,TRCD,TRRD,TRAS,TRP,TWR,TWTR,TRWT,TREF,TWCL
    MEMORY DQ DRIVE STRENGTH
    r/w QUEVE BYPASS COUNT
    bYPASS MAX,Asyc Latency,Read PREAMBLE,IDLE CYCLE LIMIT
    DYNAMIC IDLE CYCLE CENTER,CMD ADDR timing .

    CPU tweaks
    CPU VID,CPU Ratio(multiplier),CPU FSB frequency

    Also u have to adjust the CPU & RAM voltage.
    Dont think i adjusted them all.I just changed the CPU:FSB ratio,FSB frequency & 2,3 other ,rest was tweaked by mobo to suit it self.
    here is the results shown by CPU-Z.

    If anybody has OCed an Athlon lemme knw.So we can compare what will be best for Athlons.

    Make sure it's 100% stable at those speeds, otherwise you will feel like not overclocking at all, if it starts to crash when you do a critical task on the PC.

    Are you sure it is stable? (I'm not it couldn't be, but are you 100% sure?)

    Oh ok. I'm not the one who's using the PC :rolleyes:
