R1P5AW Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 (edited) As you should do a good deed everyday... I'm thinking of OC'ing and will list my components. I am hoping to safely get >3.0 ghz but definitely not come close to maxing/stressing the cpu Some components: Intel Core 2 Duo e6750 stock @ 2.66 ghz G-Skill 4GB DDR2 (PC2 6400) Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R MOBO OCZ Vendetta Cooler 4 x 120mm Fans (dont know if this is imp) Let me know if you need to know anything else about my machine and I will appreciate your help. I am a total noob when it comes to OC'ing (and admit it) so easy on the burns fellas. Also, if there are any guides already on this I apologize. and please link. Thanks guys!
