Its a P4 1.8 256 / 400
# SL5UK Costa Rica

I haven't overclocked since back in the day when I was running a K62-450 so I am a little out of it.. I know in the past Intel was extremely difficult to OC but it seems I see more and more about it these days. So is it possible? Or even worth it?

You have a P4 Willemette. These are not anywhere near as good OCers as the Northwood P4s. You'll probably be lucky if you can get 2.0Ghz out of it. These CPUs also run hotter than the Northwoods so watch your temps. What board are you using, does it even have the ability to OC?

Is it worth it? Maybe, if you can get 200Mhz out of it. You should see a little improvement.
