How do I oc my AMD 4200+ ?

[mitch66]

I'm new to this and have read a lot on this forum, but I just don't get it right. Would some one please help me to clock my system to run @ 2.5 ghz. Se my spec below.

Thanx

Yeah use Zebo's guide to start off, then if you get any problems just ask on here with specifics to any issues you have.

You might find that you have problems with OCing you RAM, so you will have to make sure that you use dividers, which ultimately keep you RAM running stock.

I quoted this from Zebo's guide:
"VERY IMPORTANT to keep in mind at all times is hypertransport needs to be around 1000, meaning LDT x HTT (aka FSB) ~1000 or less. "
The most common mistake new overclockers make is to ignore this statement. Make sure that before you raise the FSB that you lower the LDT to 4x (default stock is 5x). That will be good for FSB speeds of 200-250MHz. For FSB speed greater than 250MHz lower the LDT to 3x.

Read Zebo's guide and give it a try. If you get stuck come back here and post questions. IMO, you should be able to squeeze an extra 300MHz out of that CPU pretty easily.

Good luck!
