My very first build on this forum.

Let me know when the kid with the basketball arrives; I’m looking to overclock the processor.🤣🤣

Understood, no problem at all.😬

Homer is a guaranteed winner. It works every single time. 👍

Aha. Is that what his signature says? 😁

slyheron13 said:I have a question: what kind of overclocking headroom can I expect from an AMD Athlon 64 x2 4800 at 2.5 GHz, and what is the best way to go about it?

Take a look at these threads here:

That is exactly what happens when you rely on crystal ball gazing

I would ask those with the crystal balls to please provide slyheron13 with an answer.🙄

vividhound19 said:What kind of overclocking headroom does the AMD Athlon 64 3200 (2000 MHz) actually have?
I managed to push mine up to 3500+ (2200 MHz)
Is there any room to go even higher using just the stock cooler?

Give it a shot and see where it goes, but make sure you keep a close eye on those temperatures.

RivaTuner

That is certainly a case for those kids with crystal balls

I believe reaching up to 5 GHz should be achievable without any issues.😁

it might be a bit outdated

You should ask wiredmarlin5. He’s practically scrubbed every single atom of GTS-Ice clean 😁

To get an accurate OC graph using Windows software, you should really be using MSI Afterburner. Just download it and get it installed. You can start bumping up your GPU and memory clock speeds in small increments of about 5-10 MHz. Don't get ahead of yourself, though—take it slow so you don't end up frying your card. Every time you increase the frequency, run a game to make sure everything stays stable; if the system starts stuttering, just dial back those MHz a bit. Your goal is to find that sweet spot for maximum stability, but don't go expecting any miracles. If you're running a passively cooled card, you might want to skip the overclocking altogether.

It could just be some buzzing coming from the cooling fans or the hard drive. You should try opening up the case and listening closely to pinpoint the source, then let me know what you find. Usually, when you're running games, the system is under a heavier load and runs hotter, which causes the fans to spin faster and get a bit louder.

I checked the image yesterday and the link was working fine, and even today around 1:00 PM it was still active

The first link works for me too; actually, it was working just fine before

darkowl72 said:they actually state this:

Windows Home Edition is reading the data incorrectly; based on the clock speed they've reported—where 7x429 equals 2996.75, which is roughly 66% utilization

I would recommend using CPU-Z for checking the CPU and memory, and GPU-Z for the graphics card.

rustyangler14, you might find this useful: http://www.dansdata.com/musketeer.htm or perhaps http://www.hardcoreware.net/reviews/review-203-1.htm

When you asked about how to build an amp meter into a case, my first thought was this. As it turns out, I was right all along 👋

I couldn't agree more☕
