I got that from a program that makes a report of your entire system specs.

Maximum Clock...What exactly does it mean? I can o/c it to 3060?

EDIT : Also, the report program says this about my RAM


SPD Memory Modules:
DIMM1: Infineon 64D32000GU7B 256 MB PC2100 DDR SDRAM (2.5-3-3-7 @ 142 MHz) (2.0-3-3-6 @ 133 MHz)
DIMM2: Infineon 64D32000GU7B 256 MB PC2100 DDR SDRAM (2.5-3-3-7 @ 142 MHz) (2.0-3-3-6 @ 133 MHz)

But CPU-Z says this

Module 0 Infineon DDR-SDRAM PC2300 - 256 MBytes
Module 1 Infineon DDR-SDRAM PC2300 - 256 MBytes


Which is correct? I assume CPU-Z, since I hear about it a lot.

Curious what program told you the maximum overclock?

Everest.

1.2v for the CPU??
What processor is it?
Or is the program that bad?

Yes what is this program? I don't see how it could know the overclocking potential of your cpu, though.

Maybe 3060 is the fastest iteration of whatever core you have?

I guess I'll just deem the program invalid.

So, about my ram...if a motherboard asks for pc2100, and my ram is pc2100, would I still be able to get the maximum potentioal out of it (pc2300)?
