Need tips for overclocking. Bad fps in some games.

[Mr PotHead]

Hi i have a Intel(R) Core(TM)2 Duo CPU E7600 @ 3.06Ghz 3.06Ghz with 4GB RAM. is it good for overclocking CPU & How? iv been playing state of decay with like 20fps and gets lower sometimes. i dont know why other game i get good fps but i did overclock my GPU AMD Radeon HD 6670 875MHz the stock is 800MHz and the memory 800MHz stock is 667MHz. Can anyone give me tips to get better performance with this specs? btw i have a window 7 ultimate 64bits. Please reply and thank you.

well, i have the same gpu as you, you overclocked it pretty much as far as it can go, and overclocking your cpu is very difficult and not recommended.

Thank you for replying man. & i agree i looked up some youtube video's about CPU overclocking and it doesn't seems to be worth the time u'll need to do it. But i have a question about the Processor performance core parking min cores. iv heard a lot of people saying that if you set it to 100% so none of the cores will ever be parked might increase fps or stabilize it in some game's is that true? have any idea's about it?

Lol i thought you were a CPU Master c🙂 but it's cool. Btw how far did you go with overclocking your GPU ? just wondering.

well, i have never heard of parking, i should look into it. my 6670 came at a stock of 800 gpu core and 1000 mem core, and i overclocked it to 900 and 1100.

When you're playing state of decay is your CPU at 100% or GPU at 100%? I'm willing to bet that even though you have an older core2duo that the 6670 is the weaker component. If you GPU is running at 100% during the game, then it's the culprit and overclocking your CPU wouldn't give you any benefit.
