PC Overclocks Thread

I have seen screenshots of people getting the Core i5 to 4.2Ghz stable on air (non-stock cooler) so I'm pretty optimistic with what I can do. He is using the same mobo as me also.
Found the screenshot…

I had my old ATI 2600 up to around 700Mhz and my Core2Duo putting out 3.4 before I upgraded lol. Crashed a few times but meh.
Selling it to my Dad's accountant as a business computer lmao. (Without the vid card, putting that in my Dad's comp.)

Well there are other things you need to change in order to go higher such as voltage, etc. Your CPU needs more power to go higher than 2.83, and this will generate more heat and may cook your cpu without proper cooling. I would search the internet to find the correct voltage and bus speed for your processor before messing with it though. There's got to be someone overclocking the same processor as you.
The safest way to go about doing this would be to lower your RAM frequency to 667Mhz. This will make sure you don't overclock your RAM. Also, I wouldn't raise the voltage over 1.4 or so without replacing the CPU cooler. It will just get too hot. Set your bus speed where you have it now and raise the voltage a little. Then run a few programs to make sure it doesn't crash. Then raise the bus speed. Run programs. Etc.
Also, don't blame me if your CPU fries in the process…lol.

Oh ha ha ha!!!
My grampa died like JUST NOW!! :(:(
My grampa died like JUST NOW!! :(:(
Sorry bro. Did he have a computer? If he did you should totally get it and overclock it.

Got the GPU stable at 925Mhz by downgrading the drivers.
Used ATI Catalyst Overdrive to OC. (So simple for ATI users.)Got random BSOD's with the latest drivers from AMD so idk what that's all about…seems to work fine now.
Specs:
http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/cshq8/As for the CPU, I should be getting my new job soon so I can afford this cooler. (or something like it)

Then we will see how high I can push this thing.

Well he coudlnt really move to use a computer but he was living with my uncle and he had a computer
new rig:
M4A79XTD EVO Asus mobo
AMD Phenom II X4 3.2 GHz not OCed
Nvidia BFG 295 GTX
Zalman 9700 CPU fan
Antec 900 tower
