I have just bought an Abit IS7 and a P4 2.8GHz 800fsb.
I intend to buy some ddr400 memory and a TI4200 8xAGP card.
I want to overclock using stock fans and heatsinks and believe that
3.2GHz is very reachable. Would the following steps describe briefly
what needs to be done to achieve my target:-
1. Via the bios, up the mainboard fsb to about 220-225MHz and adjust
the cpu voltage accordingly(also via the bios?)
2. the ddr400 runs at 200MHz so an increase of 20-25MHz would oc the
memory as well so the memory voltage has to be increased as well. The
timings can be changed as well but I don't understand enough to be
able to do so confidently.
3. I'm even more unclear about how to oc the graphics card but does it
involve using 3rd party software and does not need anything altering
in the bios.
Can anyone confirm that I am on the right track or add any tips that
may prove useful.
Thanks.
