software overclocking

[fantom-feltpen]

hey i have an asus mobo and the bois that came on it SUCKS!!! it is top limited, which means i can only UNDERCLOCK and i want to OVERCLOCK!!!!

i know there are a few programs out there for overclocking within your os, but every one i have found is for like windown 95 or for like P3's... i have an amd phenom 9850 and windows vista, and i need overclocking software!!!!!!

any sugestions?

my suggestion is dont do it cuz software OC is very unstable and can lead to system instability

I haven't tried it on my desktop, but my laptop uses clockgen reliably and stable. (1.73Ghz pentium M oc's to 2.52Ghz on stock voltage)

The GUI's on most OC tools suck, but who cares if they look crap, they do the job.

You may find they aren't so good because if you need to raise the voltage to OC, you can't really in the OS. You need to have voltage control in your bios to really take advantage.

Good Luck.

Obviously your multiplier is locked, but you should be able to raise the HT bus speed.

my voltage and multiplier in bios are not LOCKED, but i cant set them higher than stock.... only lower...

clockgen in windowns vista does not work correctly.... i can only see my clocks, but can not change them...
