My new rig is built and ready for me to do some OC damage. Can someone give me the list of the utilities I need to get started? Monitoring and adjustment tools to be specific. I have a Winchester 3200+ 90nm, Asus AV8, Leadtek's 6800 GT (running latest beta drivers) and 2x512MB of Corsair Value RAM.
 
Thank you! Keep it coming fellas! I hear 'CoolBits' is the vid card adjuster I should use, correct? And for the memory and processor... what do I work with, or is the BIOS my best bet?

Also, I'm learning how to OC each component from reading various sources... in what order do I go about OC'ing as I strive towards achieving stability? By order I mean which components have no effect on any others when I finally start changing the values? That's for RAM, the processor, the videocard.
 
Use this to find the max overclock Here. And for the memory and processor speed I find the bios to be the best with clockgen second. Coolbits is a good tool for overclocking and usually you can push your card past what its recommended settings are. You should have no problem with heat as Leadtech has a very good cooler from what I've heard.|

Good luck with the overclocking.
 
Hah, I never knew what Prime was all about until I saw your link. It's a number cruncher that keeps the computer at capacity while it searches for special results, right? Too funny. I'll give it all a shot - thanks again for the help.
