I already know that it's best to not be overclocking at all when reformatting and installing an OS from scratch, but thought I'd ask anyway...since it's Friday and I'm brain dead and want to cover all the bases before I do the dreaded Format C: this weekend.

It's a mild overclock; 10.5 x 105 up from the base 10 x 100. Whatyathink?

I usually overclock first... For some reason win2k likes it better for me... have gotten errors before w/o overclocking and then overclocking...
