Hi as I have said above I am noob to this can some one help me to start to learn to over clock on this rig!
Thanks
 
Pentium 4 is a fairly simple processor to over-clock.

How far you can go depends on which version -- of which version -- you are using.

Is it a Northwood "C" processor?

Is it a Prescott "E" processor?

Is it socket-478, or LGA775? Or again "Which processor is it?"

What motherboard are you using?
 
Hi BD
Thanks for coming back to me on this!
Where do I find all the info you want? I did say I was noob hehehehe!
I used CPU-Z and got this snapshot:chipset up

It is Prescott and Socket LGA 775
 
What motherboard?

I'm assuming that the mobo uses an Intel chipset.

Even if the mobo was manufactured by Intel, since it uses an LGA775 socket, I'm fairly certain that it would have "over-clocking" features.

I can see so far that the processor comes from the batch of Prescotts made to run with a 533 Mhz FSB.
 
Hey BD you assumed correct and if you click on the link in my previous post you will see what the set up is......where do I go from here ? Please bear in mind I am noob to this?
