man thank you .

iwould like to oveclock .

i have an intel i7 870 2.93  4 gb ram

gigabyte p55 us3l and nvidia geforse gtx460 756 mb gddr5

[xSimmyN]

@dimkakos I wouldnt overclock a i7... its good enough already and if it burns up you will need a new one.

[techgodrachit]

Sorry ignore my previous comments, they were posted by mistake. I have an acer aspire 5740 g. It has intel core i5 2.26 ghz 4gb ram, How much can I safely overclock it to.Thanks

[ericjdevr]

@techgodrachit You have to see if it's even unlocked for overclocking first

[techgodrachit]

Sry can I overclock my pc to 3.2ghz i have

[techgodrachit]

Can I overclock I h

How much could I safely overclock to?

Thanks

[KajunFriesYT]

@KajunFriesYT Oh, and the processor has four cores (lol, forgot, sorry!)

[skrat501]

@KajunFriesYT Why the hell do you need to overclock that, it is fine

[KajunFriesYT]

@skrat501 I don't know lol I was just curious. Every once in a while Battlefield 3 has some lag spikes and I thought overclocking a little might fix it

[skrat501]

@KajunFriesYT It may just be your connection.

[MrPikachuHater]

I have a AMD Athlon x3 450. How much can i oc it?:)

[SlithIce06]

Hey there, i was wondering if you could give me some advice :] so im not sure if i have components that are even capable of overclocking, so here it is!

Hey,,,

I Am Planning To Overclock My CPU It's Core 2 Duo E8300 @2.83 GHz With Stock Cooler

4GB Kingston DDR3 Ram

Asrock G41 MotherBoard

The Point Is: Can I Reach 3.4 GHz Without CPU Damage If Not How Much Could I Get???(Remmember I Have A Stock Cooler)

And How To Do it Exactly i Am Confused u know I Am A Begginer At This So I Don't Wan't To Mess Up My PC,

[Bladesedgeftw]

I have a Intel core i5 2500k in a P8P67 PRO R3.1 LGA 1155 P67 ATX Intel Motherboard.

Im not sure i should overclock it but i was wondering if you have any opinion on what i could get it too. I use Hydro Series H80 High Performance Liquid CPU Cooler Kit for cooling.

[tiny3607]

I have an AMD Phenom 2 x4 clocked at 3.2 ghz. I have an aftermarket 92mm cpu cooler. Will I be able to overclock to 4.0ghz safely and if i do, what voltage should I run the CPU at.

[Shutuplol1]

Maximum Power Supply Wattage 220 W

forgot to add 

[Shutuplol1]

Hey i want to overclock it, but i want to know if its worth it

AMD Dual-Core Processor E-450 (1.65GHz, 1MB total cache) AMD Radeon™ HD6320 Graphics - AMD Hudson D1 chipset

I want to get it atleast to 2.00GHz

[Timx4]

I have an intel 550 3.20 ghz how do I overclock it and what's the max i overclock. I a psu of 650 antec and graphic card ati 6950

[MrVolvo99]

no i meant

5450

[MrVolvo99]

Will I be able to overclock a Intel Core i3 5459 with 3.07 Ghz ?

[10mrspagett]

What are the program you use to see the temp?

[kaiser080999]

can i overclock my intel atom 230?i need it to play nfs world.how?

[MattiPatti12]

@monsieuratheist For gaming, i5 is much more worth for money.

[warcraftion]

I have an AMD Athalon 64 x2 Dual core processor 5000+, MMX 3D Now (2 CPU's), 2.6 GHz and an Nvidia gtx 460 SE. Is the cpu overclockable??

[MonsieurAtheist]

I'm having difficulty in deciding between a i7-2600K and an i5-2500K.

Can you give me any advice? (Gaming self-built, not too expensive computer)

[kaiser080999]

@MonsieurAtheist i7 extreme...3.60 ghz to 3.90 when the computer overclocks itself...

[surviveasl]

I hawe old pc and cpu is Intel core2duo E4400 ...on full load prime95 large FFT CPUID reads this

core voltage 1.374v

core speed 2007.2MHz

bus speed 200.7MHz

rated FSB 802.9MHz can I overclock it to 2,5GHz with cooler master hyper TX-7 cooler TNX

[ViscOnWoW]

i did this on an old pc to see what happens when i put the voltage really high and the thing at like 600 and it was smoking lolz i broke it

[FPSUsername]

hey, can you help me?

Intel HD Graphics up to 1755 MB DVMT

but if i look in my bios i see that my grahics card has 128 mb free for games, internet etc.

how can i make it better?

I cant overclock it in bios and programs like rivatuner doesn't work.

my processor is: Intel Core I3 330M 2.27 GHz

I want to play mw2 on full screen (1366x768) and high resolution.

[MrGamesOfficial]

@FPSUsername Sadly forget it, you are running and intel graphics card not designed for gaming. It is pumped full of RAM as a scam to make it look better than what it is.

I'm guessing you have a laptop? In that case you cannot do much. Maybe sell it and put the money towards a new machine. Sorry.

[FPSUsername]

@MrGamesOfficial ok, my laptop was 600 euro, but a new graphics card is 500 euro.

but maby next year i buy a playstation

[Roland0314]

@FPSUsername Who the hell pays 500 euro for a gpu? Only super extreme people do, you can get a 560-ti for ~250 USD (idk how much it is in euros)

[FPSUsername]

@Roland0314 i don't know, i have a laptop, so it is hard to replace, and that is why i'm hating acer, it is an expencive mark.

[MLGMrOakley]

LOL i take that back as soon as i ran Orthos it raped it

[MLGMrOakley]

awesome thanks man i got my intel celeron dual-core T3000 from 1.8 to 2.5 thanks it has made it so much better and it only runs on 30C when i have it sitting on my lap

[SenoirMeow]

so overclocking does not happen automatically? im happy about that because there are risks to this i thought the computer would go " i think ill overclock now and try to kill myself" but im happy i can do it so it reduces the risk.

[BTVOTmurderdolls]

I have and AMD Athlon x2 250 @3.00 GHz

I saw a video where a guy overclocked it up to 3.40 GHz.

Does this clock frequency requires a liquid refrigeration or just the cooling fan that comes with the processor from default?

Or having the computer's cabinet open is enough?

[BTVOTmurderdolls]

Gotta love your accent

[PSPENZO1]

XD my pc,s cpu (laptop) goes to 105 celcius without a overclock that isnt good isnt is (btw my cpu,s name is AMD semporn with 2.15 ghz )

[elyad1000]

hey tanks man i overlocked from i5-450m 2.4 turboboost to 2.66 and now it is 3.4 ghz

mmy specs:

i5-450m 2.4 up to 3.4ghz now

4gb ram up to 8gb

640 gb hard disk

intel hd graphics up to 750 mhz

Tank you i owe you

[shabbyroadgaming23]

i have this processor and a liquid cooling system that gets it down 35 degrees (celsius) than what it would normally be. if i were to overclock it will this be enough?

[MrPlasticbagman12]

Can you do this on Intel Atom n570?

[AtmosphereGameplay]

i bought a computer off a website recently and it said " CPU 3.3 GHz Overclocked to 4.1 GHz" when i look on my system specs it says 3.3 GHz anyone know why or how i could fix it?

[mrkeith557]

hey dude im trying to overclock to on my p5k-e wifi motherboard with a e4500 its stock is 2.20ghz i managed 2.78ghz i think. the memory is just a non branded type i think its samsung or something not sure but im trying to get over 3ghz but everytime i try it keeps shutting down and rebooting every time. i have to remove the battery to reset the bios is there a easier way thanks :)

[MrGamesOfficial]

@mrkeith557 This is because your current settings are not stable. this could be for a number of reasons:

- Your RAM can't handle higher clock speeds as it sounds to be generic.

- Your voltages are too low (vcore vram etc..)

I recommend getting some software to see what your highest stock CPU voltages are when under 100% load, setting vcore to that and slowly increasing the fsb until it isnt stable, then either settle for that or slightly increase the voltage to the next increment

be 100%sure

[MrGamesOfficial]

@mrkeith557 also you don't have to remove the battery of the motherboard to reset the bios, there should be an option to put everything back on auto or restore settings in the bios

[mrkeith557]

@MrGamesOfficial where is this option whats it called because most of the settings is on auto like the memory etc. im running the programme cpuz the bus speed is 249mhz multiplier is x11 given me 2.78 roughly. but my core voltage is 1.432v

[steven7795]

Can you overclock an AMD Athlon II X2 240 processor?

[1252michel]

i have an intel pentium dual core E6300, 2.8.. i am thinking to try overclocking.. does it's worth for this cpu? what ghz do u thing is best for performance in low temperature... i have another cpu fan(cooler master)... motherboard Asus p5ql/epu...

[ThalesII]

I don't even have to look anywhere else, you have the exact same CPU as me!

[SxCobar]

@sandwich1817 Hey I have the same processor. I am going to try overclocking @ 3.4 ghz to star with and post results on here. Have you tried this yet?/what was the outcome?

i3 540, 4gb ram, nvidia geforce 310

[MrBelace]

My processor is 1.7 gHz, can i clock to 2.0 ? IS that harmfull for my computer, i have 640 mb of ram, and can u help me.. on wich number i can cloock ?? pls help

[ratedcrits]

this is way easier: go to start> search power> click "choose a power plan" > click unhide other settings and click high performance or gaming mode, it speeds up errything including the fan it self

[thecooldude71]

such an old system.

[ONLINEgamer567]

once you over clock your cpu will you ever have to un over clock it like in a few hours ?

[zenprotoss]

when you said 60 degrees you were talking Fahrenheit right?

[nemanjacoric]

Can i overclock my cpu and how much??? i have intel celeron cpu 430 1.80 ghz , 766 mb ram, page file 1026mb, nvidia gforce 7050/nvidia nForce 610i 512mb. PLEASE ANSWER IT WILL HELP A LOT!!!!!!!!!!!! IM SUBSCRIBING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[boggerman4352]

can some1 tell me the stock voltage for the amd fx 4100?

[7GGonzalez]

Do you think it will be safe to overclock my labtop cpu to 2.3ghz from 2.2ghz???

[DoubleSlayerXXX]

My CPU Is 1 off being the exact same as yours! Mine is an E6700

[SkarrianLIVE]

Hello,

I have an AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core 4400+ 2.30GHz, 2GB RAM DDR2 and ATI HD 4600 video card (Desktop PC). Is overclocking safe on my system? And how much can I overclock it to?

[magikeryk1]

i tried to overclock my laptop and it worked but i had to use more advanced programs

[domeee11]

@outlawedtoker aight I'll try that, I just don't want to shorten the cpu life ahaha btw I'm buying asus p8p67 pro rev 3.1 since p8p67 deluxe has many issues.. You think pro ver is decent? Z68 isn't my option since I'm buying a gpu and quicksync is not much important to me.. thanks btw!

[HailTheMidget]

Hey could i overclock my laptop

Processor Intel(r) core i7 Q720 @ 1.6 ghz

[IIDigitalCodeII]

60 Degrees Celsius or Fahrenheit?

[l4dxpert1]

hey man can i overclock i have a custom built gaming computer with an amd hex core @3.0ghz and a lion square heat sink with an asus motherboard and an ati radeon 6770 gpu

[QuantumBladeGun]

Hey I have Rampage III Extreme and an I7 940 at 2.93, how high can i go? does my motherboard have an option to shut off if my cpu isnt stable so it doesnt die?

[jodeo12]

can you overclock an AMD sempron dual core processor 2.0 ghz? if you need more info send me a message thanks in advanced

[DeadKold]

I've got a AMD phenom II x6 1045T @ 2.7ghz when i try to run bios and change setting its greyed out. that mean its locked? anyway through it?

[FRr3AkOnALEaSh]

@DeadKold If you know for a fact it's locked, it's the motherboard that's blocking it. Some MOBO's are unlocked while others (older ones) are locked.

[DeadKold]

@FRr3AkOnALEaSh I do not know for a fact how would i check? the comp is less than 2 years an Asus CG1330

[deanschreiber12]

My laptop, an asus G72GX, (2.53 GHz core 2 duo) overclocks to 2.8 GHz (up to 15%) (software enabled with asus turbo gear extreme), but can I change what it can overclock to so that there is a noticeable difference in performance?

[fekyalcz]

Is it possible to overclock an laptop cpu ( 2.6 ghz , 2.9 ghz turbo ) to like 3.5 ghz? maybe a bit less... i got an extra cooler under my laptop... is it possible?

[the12221]

my bios doesnt even have that... :/

[MultiKnull]

What exactly is clocking? i feel like succh an idiot, asking questions like this, but i am about to buy a gaming pc, and i dont know anything about it. Clocking a cpu was just somethign i found while doing some research about the components, and it looked sort of important.

To anyone who knows something about this, im sorry if it lookes stupid :D

[Curevicc]

@MultiKnull Over clocking is taking the CPU GHz and maxing it out. So if you have a i5-2500K or something that supports over clocking instead of 3.3 Ghz you can go up to like 5 Ghz or something like that.

[tatkirulez]

I have an i5 2500k and wanted to overclock it... I've seen that 4.5ghz is what alot of people have used. I have a gigabyte z68 mobo, what numbers do I need to change and how high?

[callofdutymw2trane]

mine : 2500K @ 4.5 Ghz Voltage set on auto . and max reading using CPUID Hardware monitor never went above 1.06 V on the Vcore

stressed it on prime and intel Burn Test for 1 - 2 hrs more than once .. is that a good idea keepin voltage on auto ?

Full Pc Spex

i5 2500K @ 4.5 Ghz

8 Gb 1666Mhz DDR III ram (hyper)

SLI GTX 470 stock speeds

500 Gb HDD Sata

600W PSU (HuntKey) ---> good enuf psu i guess ! XD

[4T2Dub0]

I should probably add, im new to this as well so my definition is basic and mildly informed, at best

[4T2Dub0]

for those that didnt know, overclocking is basicly just speeding up the rate at which your pc processes information be it for games or the internet it can be a great "addition" to a comp. Also, if you have a laptop chances are its not worth the work.

[BIGMAN1051993]

hey i gotta question, i have a computer:

Processor: intel core duo e8400 @2.00ghz

RAM; 4gb

GC: gtx 260 OC

Power: 650W corsair,

if i overclock to 3,5ghz will it damage my comp? thankyou for replying i will subscribe!

[MrMusicIsMine]

sry i think this is a very stupid question but what do you reach when your pc ??

[ajienonymous]

i have laptop model Toshiba satellite L745(i3-2310M)

Processor:Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-2310M @ 2.10GHz

ram:2GB

Display card:Intel HD Graphics Family

Harddisk:640GB

can i overclocking it to 3.0GHz...

[TheMenEgg]

is it safe to overclock a intel core i7 2700k with liquid cooling to 5.0ghz?

[nytrixcy]

hey i have a cpu:i7 870 at 2.93ghz and i want to overclock it to 3.6ghz

vga:NVIDIA GT 420 1GB

ram:8GB

can i overclock it ? thx

[NZgamer102]

is it bad for my pc and will it damage anything

[XxKYFERxX]

This video has really helped a lot! One question, I have just been given a imedia Packard Bell tower and i checked out the system specs. It says its 3.66Ghz which i thought its a bit steep for a standard pc or is that normal? Specs are:

Intel Duel Core

Nvidia Geforce GT 540 graphics card

1GB Ram (will be upgrading to 2GB or 4GB)

200GB hardrive

Thanks, i have subscribed :)

[MarouaneOfficial2011]

Hey guys I want someone to answer of my question please this is not a joke. I don't know why we Overcklock an CPU?

[102293]

I have an old computer.

Compaq Presario PC Intel Pemium Dual Core Processor@ 1.8GHZ

1GB Ram

320 GB Hardrive

Graphics Card: Nvidia Geforce 9500 GT

will I be able to overclock my cpu safely?

[irisballerina]

what is overclocking and what it does ?

[2goXD]

so if i want my cpu to run at 1.3625v i have to increse it more than that to about 2 voltage options higher ...(1.3875v = 1.3625) ?

[domeee11]

Hey man , this is my first comment on your video, i have i7 2600k 3.4ghz on stock speed right? so, im planning to overclock to 4.0ghz,(dont wanna go over that) i have antec kuhler h20 620. question is, can i just use STOCK voltage for 4.0ghz speed? stock voltage is 1.3v i believe?

thanks. looking forward to your reply.

appreciate it dude.

[MrGamesOfficial]

@domeee11 there is no harm in trying on the stock voltage.

make sure your pciex is on 100

not sure about sandy bridge overclocking as i have not done much of it

[domeee11]

@MrGamesOfficial can you please explain to me what is pciex? im very new to OC'ing so thats why i dont wanna go over 4.0ghz :) thanks for the reply. appreciate it!

[estesoyojajaja]

@MrGamesOfficial Dude i have an Intel; Core i5-460m processor and i wish to overclock my laptom. What speed shoud my cpu run ?

[andylinkproductions]

@MrGamesOfficial is there anyway to overclok a stock hp pc with a Phenom II x6 1065t?

[HtxVestergaard]

@MrGamesOfficial Hey i have a HP Pavilion p6341sc, the specs are like this: AMD Phenom II X4 820 2.8GHz, 8Gb DDR3 Ram, ATI Readon HD 4000 Series (can't remember exact number), Is it good for clocking?

[vgamesx1]

@HtxVestergaard anything is good for overclocking, just as long as it supports it and you have a proper cooler.

[outlawedtoker]

@domeee11 Most any motherboard that your going to have a i7 2600 in is going to have excellent OCing in the bios and you prob won't have to touch the voltage.

I just built my friend a system based around  i7 2600 with a asus motherboard. I set it at 4.5ghz by simply changing the clock. Temps are fine to, didn't go over 70 at full load. And I had him set up with a cool master evo 212 cooler, which is a $30 heat sink.

So yea, don't stop at 4ghz man, lol. That is a joke. You can go way over that.

[Nik3AllSt4r]

i have an AMD Athlon II x4 630 2.80GHz

what is the highest ghz i can get without upgrading anything just using stock and what frequency and voltage shoudl i set it to

[SPAZZY1912]

thanks so much man, im going to try and get a pentium D or 4, not too sure which one lol, from 2.5ghz up to about 3 ;D

[xXrlineXx]

I have 2.30GHz, I need at least 2.66GHz. I have a TOSHIBA laptop. Can I overclock it to that? I have 3 GB of RAM.

[IKH194]

i have a intel i7 930 2.8 ghz can i overclock to 3.6ghz with v8 coolermaster

[HTCPrezet]

Hi i have 4GB RAM and a Intel Core 2 Quad 2.33GHz processor how high can i overglock my Processor? i really want about 3.00Ghz

[EndoHash]

POTATO CAM!

[MrGamingTut0rialz]

Dont OverClock Friend done this and his desktop over heated!

[ericsletsplays]

@MrGamingTut0rialz You need good cooling or you'll fry it.

[MrGamingTut0rialz]

@ericsletsplays mhm i agree thats why i have added the latest cooling system for my laptop i7 :)



[KingofToilet88]

Can anyone help me? I can't overclock my dual core e2140 on ga ep41-ud3l. I'm triying to bost freq. from 1.6 to 2, but my system always reboat 2 times and overclock doesn't take efect .

[MarshalBeard]

hey, i have a intel core i3 M370 (2 cores, hyperthreading tech so 4 virtual cores) with 8 GB of ram (DDR3 1066). if you need more info on the cpu just google it. can i overclock my CPU? thanks.

[MrGamesOfficial]

@MarshalBeard you cannot overclock a laptop very well

[MarshalBeard]

@MrGamesOfficial yeah nvm, my bios is all locked up anyway. thanks for the tutorial though, im gonna overclock my dads ASUS desktop instead :D

[1972paintballbeast]

@MrGamesOfficial can i over clock a x2 555 black dual core with my asus core unlocker to be x4 it has 2 virtual cores and and regular cores do you think i can stably over clock to 4 ghz

[vgamesx1]

@MarshalBeard yeah.. if its a laptop then your better off underclocking it for battery life and also less heat.

[EZtrollin]

i've got this 700mhz AMD athlon in a gateway select computer. i got this computer for free without documentation, and gateway.com doesn't seem to have too much info on their older models. this computer doesn't really have any value beyond that of entertainment, i simply want to see how far i can push it before it fails. any advice on overclocking on older computers?

[95oakash]

i dont have the jumperfree configuration...what should i do

[legendofra]

@TisVENOM really?? I don't know though. I'm afraid my whole laptop will just overheat and break or somthing D:

[legendofra]

@MrGamesOfficial Yes, it is a dell laptop. Probably released end of 2010. Dell XPS 14.

[BreakDown1996]

My specs:

HD Radeon 3450

Intel Dual Core E4600

No water cooler or anything

I am no where near a computing expert but I just want to play some decent games on my pc, would it be risky for me to overclock my pc? Also, is overclocking reversible?

[johndirk41]

i dont seem to have that jumper free configuration.. what do i do?

[HungeryDead]

Hey any advice on over clocking this (for gaming and 3D editing etc.):

[TheSantaKruz]

Can I OC my CPU of Intel Core i7 960 @ 3.20ghz

My PSU is a Cooler Master Silent Pro 850W power supply,

my GPU is a Radeon 6970.

What can I OC my CPU to without danger if any at all?

Help is VERY much appreciated.

[EZtrollin]

@TheSantaKruz your system is already pretty good. i'd say somewhere between 3.4 and 3.8 would be a pretty safe estimate. your cooling system for your cpu is an important consideration, experiment a little using some temperature monitoring software (nvidia offers some free software) while OCing, and compare that to normal operations. it would also be a good idea to run some stress tests, running highly resource intensive operations and once again comparing peak temps while OCing and not OCing.

[EZtrollin]

@TheSantaKruz (srry this is long) if you built your computer, the specifications manual that came with your cpu should tell you the safe operating temp of your cpu, or at least the temp at which the failsafe auto-shutdown occurs. if not, then intel's website will probably be able to tell you. if while OCing your computer can keep the temperature relatively the same as normal operation, or at least considerably below the failure temp, then it's probably fine.

[mrcrazyenough007]

@MrGamesOfficial I have the same BIOS ver5015 and have a Mother board P5SD2-VM. I want to overclock my Dual Core E5700 3.0GHz to 3.4GHz. But can't find this "Jumpfree Config" in the Bios Menu? And Idea and Solution?

@legendofra is this a laptop?

[xav1uz]

@MrGamesOfficial yes he has a 425M (m for mobile)

[TisVENOM]

@legendofra you can definitely overclock your graphics card

[TheySeeMeTrollinVVR]

@legendofra Why would you want to overclock that?

[DarkFireMario100001]

@legendofra i7 has turbo boost. yours is a 740QM, so it will auto overclock to 2.93Ghz WHEN you need it most.generally in gaming. if you want to overclock it then turn off turbo-boost and configure it to stay at the speed you want and your cpu is faster than my i3-380M@2.53Ghz because you have a quad core (8 threads). so you dont REALY need to OC it unless you want to play HD games,edit HD video, watch in HD and use skype in HD at the same time.( you need about 4 Ghz for that)

[MrGamesOfficial]

@electro885 by the sounds of it, you cannot overclock. laptops and factory made machines are usually like this for warranty and lifespan reasons.

[electro885]

Can't you increase your CPU fan speed to cool it down if you over-clock it?

[Fortune2point0]

@NoodleBoy101 there are sometimes options yes.

[TheMenEgg]

How far can I push a sandy bridge 2600k that runs at 3.4ghz? is it possible to go around 4.0ghz and what voltage?

[Fortune2point0]

@TheMenEgg 4.0GHz is easily done on stock voltage. Just change the turbo multiplier to 40x and leave it, you're good to go.

[Fortune2point0]

@TheMenEgg 4GHz should be easy on stock voltage.
