Hi overclockers,

This is my first attempt to overclock my computer. This is what i'm gonna be working with:

Athlon 64 3200+ venice core
Chaintech VNF4/ultra zenithVE series mobo
Cosair 512mb x2
gigabyte geforce6600gt 128mb pci-e
seagate barracuda 80 HDD
Antec Sonata II case with 1 extra 120mm fan
Windows XP Pro with sp2

I built this comp a lil while ago using the help of you guys here in the anandtech forums and its running great. Now im starting to do gaming again. Where should i get started at?

I found that guide extremely useful my first try at overclocking. Hope it helps you as well. Ask questions if anything in the guide confuses you (takes a few read-through's to get the grasp of things).
