Ùhh... dude. Just raise the damn multiplier in the BIOS. =/ Way easier than OCing FSB. OCing FSB generates more heat. I run 3,3Ghz with my 9950 on stock cooler (34 idle - 58 stressed).
What kinda cooling you using? I applaud you for taking up the task of overclocking an AMD. I have a 5200+ Athlon and can't get it over 3.1, and it's not due to heat... Stupid processor will not go any higher without failure at anything above 3.1. Could be my cheap board, could be my processor...
because I already had an AM2 board, and it would have been another 200 bucks for an Intel board. But if I could get an affordable board and a cpu that is better then this one. I would do it..If I could sell this stuff lol
dude what fsb and volts and stuff have u set to in your bios?
