hahaha, I can appreciate what you say there Francois. I also enjoy the feeling of overclocking my components. especially when a game is getting a bit offish, but then you overclock and she runs smooth.
when I said don't touch the CPU, I should have been more specific. I'd advise against overclocking when the CPU and the motherboard share the same FSB. learnt it the hard way through blue screens a plenty (nvidia 680i LT mobo, 2.66GHz Core2Duo) and thinking about it now, it feels like a kind of "no duh". kinda sucks when I've got OCZ memory at 800MHz BEGGING to be pushed to 1066, so all I could do is change the timings. now that I think about it, maybe I can push my board's FSB up to allow the extra glory... anyway, as you said, it's a kind of science. tweak this, change that, make that slider go to the end of its limits and you've got happiness
