Hi everyone.
I have had the following computer since last August, and I went to squeeze out the most I can before I follow one of Tom's or Anand's guides and by the latest and greatest box sometime next year. Here it is:
P4 2.4C (Northwood) (with the default cooling that came in package)
2x512 MB RAM DDR400
GeForce 5800 (which they dont make anymore)
The reason I bought that specific processor is because I heard it was good for overclocking, even though I have never overclocked anything in my life and I am cool to admit that I dont know jack about it.
I am hoping you fine people can tell a neophyte how I can take that up to 2.8 or 3.0 without screwing s*** up. Will it be able to run at that clock indefinitely without melting? As you can probably see, I am completely ignorant in this regard. Help a brother out 🙂
Thanks so much, and all the bloody best.
Victor
