Hi I finished building my new rig

A8N-SLi motherboard
3200+ winchester
2x 512 mb DDR 500 PQI extreme memory
Zalman 7700-CU heatsink/ Artic silver 5
74 gig raptors
NEC 3500A
samsung floppy
MSI 6600GT
500 Watt powersupply (25A on 12V)
thermal take tsunami dream case
voice controlled blue cathode ray lights

ok enough of that...

my computer is running at 2.01 Ghz right now at 25-27 C (i've been running for 3 hours)
I think that's pretty cool compared to my old 1700+

anyways I've heard that I can overclock this to 2.6Ghz fairly easy with stock voltage

BUT i'm a noob in overclocking...

can anyone recommend me what to do step by step?

Go to bios and change what settings/ voltages?

I would like to keep my voltage settings at minimum if not at a stock setting...

what do i have to do? thanks

heres my settings with the Neo2 Motherboard and same CPU. Also with Geil PC4000 512x2.

250FSB
4x HTT
10x Multi
RAM 1:1 2.5-4-4-7
Vcore at 1.47

all other stuff off, like coolnquiet, nv/ati help, dynamic O/C, etc.

I can post at 2.7 with 1.5 Volts, but it wont complete a SuperPI run or a full benchmark. At 2.6 i can game, but can not prime 95 for more than 5 minutes, At 2.5, i can prime 95 until next christmas....lol

My limit was the memory controller on the CPU, as i eliminated everything else through trial and error.

Still, 100MHz shy of an FX55 speed is quite nice to me.
