@xDutchZomBieHD An article I found for this specific cpu said that they were able to go as far as 2.34 Ghz and still maintain stability. As long as it's not some weird cheapo paste you should never need to replace it unless you do install a new cooling solution. You just need to replace it whenever you expose it, basically. The most important thing other than the cooling system itself is to KEEP IT DUST-FREE (part 1)..
@xDutchZomBieHD (part 2) Just keep a watch on your temperatures. as long as your heatsink and fan and such are dust-free and there is good air flow, you should be okay to beef it up a little. BUT, as always, you do so at your own risk... so be sure to back up your data and such in case something goes wrong. If you can afford it, however, and if your case is big enough, I WOULD recommend upgrading to a more efficient cooling system. You should not really need an expensive liquid-based system tho.
@xDutchZomBieHD (part 3) I'm just the kind of guy that likes to be extra careful, and you can buy good air-based cooling systems fairly cheap these days. But I'm no expert on overclocking so I would highly encourage you to also look online as much as you can and find tutorials, tips, what kind of cooling systems most people use, etc.
it won't let me paste the link to the article here so just do a google search for you processor name and it's the one from xbitlabs.com.
@xDutchZomBieHD (part 4) In conclusion (sorry, i often ramble, just a details kind of guy, lol)... if you still want to push it all the way to 2.4 Ghz, then YES you should look into getting a better cooler, especially if your cpu gets hot as it is now. The info from the article was to 2.34 Ghz with no upgrade to a better cooling system and their tests showed that is as high as you can go and still maintain stability.
@xDutchZomBieHD (part 5) If it were me, I'd go ahead and buy a new cooler anyway since they are fairly cheap now. I'm a "better safe than sorry" kind of guy, so that's my advice.
@VictorGuerrero14 Hey, man! Some emachines use the Tab button. If that doesn't work then try Esc or any of the F keys.
First, but sure to immediately start tapping, somewhat rapidly, one of those keys AS SOON AS the computer turns on. It might very briefly show which key you need on the screen before Windows starts, but if it goes away too fast, instead tap the Pause/Break key and that will literally "pause" your system from booting so you can see what's on the screen.
@VictorGuerrero14 (cont'd from last comment).. Just try one key at a time each time you boot it up to attempt to access the BIOS. ALSO IMPORTANT NOTE... if you miss entering the BIOS and Windows starts to boot, WAIT until you can shutdown Windows from within Windows. Do NOT turn off the computer while Windows is still booting. Doing so could cause Windows to be corrupted in some way from doing that so many times. If you forget and do it once or twice don't freak out BUT.....
@VictorGuerrero14 (man I wish you could post longer replies!).... but if you do, then the next time you try booting into Windows you will most likely see a message saying something like "Windows did not shutdown properly" or ".. encountered a serious error" or something. At which point you may have a few options... If one of the options is to simply "start Windows normally" then do that. It might also want to do a built-in self diagnostic to check things, go ahead and let it do that if it does.
@VictorGuerrero14 Hope all this helps. Sorry it's a little choppy, but let me know if you have further questions. Thanks for watching my videos and posting your question!
@Treyskie Hi I am a Comptia A+ student and just want to say your video was great ...well done...maybe if you have the time , consider doing some more...keep up the good work..
awesome. You are great!
