Hey I am fairly new to the overclocking scene and just wanted to ask you guys some questions with things I seem to be having.
First of all I have overclocked my ati radeon 9550 from 250/230 (somewhere around 230 I think) to 400/350.
I have also done my RAM timings to what they are meant to be. Now the problem is doing the CPU. I understand about the frequency it runs at and the multiplier (in my case AMD Athlon64 sckt 939 3200+ 10x 200MHz), now my bios is by AMI and I have seen to it that it is up to date...but nowhere am I able to find CMOS in the BIOS (the menu of options that allows you to change FSB and all that) and trust me I have looked everywhere in there...I think.
I have seen screenies of peoples BIOS where it is right in the very first screen of the BIOS although it was a Pheonix one. The only option I was able to change was to make my FSB run at 215MHz and that was the max...now I know you can go a bit higher than that. Sorry if this is worded badly but I am tired and unable to sleep due to much caffeine consumption....evil caffeine. Thanks for any replies.
