Hi everyone! Is there anyone here that overclocks their PC? I thought about trying to overclock my PC hardware, but I don't want to take the chance of frying something. Besides, my PC is fast enough for me right now and I much rather upgrade my PC to gain more speed and etc. than to overclock and possibly damage my hardware. Anyone here into water-cooling for maximum overclocking? For you overclockers... do you see much gain by overclocking? Do you have extra case fans to prevent overheating? Later, ~Mr. Bone88  |

No way I'm overclocking it. They didn't exactly give this one away. "Uhhh Honey Sweetest Dearest can we run out and get another 'puter before High Noon time?"

I've heard too many horror stories about how people fried their hardware by overclocking. I'm not going to overclock at all. I rather upgrade my PC. Cya, ~Mr. Bone88 |

I'm with you guys on this, I run my system to specs and have never fried a vid card or MB. I don't believe there's any real advantage to overclocking for this old game , .... todays fps is higher than the game was designed for anyway, and it won't replace skill.

I use to be an over clocker of cpu and video cards fried two Voodoo 5 cards in doing so and ruined a 1000Mhz processor n the process There is no secret to over clocking the thing to remember is no matter how cool you keep your processors everytime you over clock you bring that video card or the computers Processor closer to death it may not be tommorrow but it will happen  thats a fact.... |

I overclocked my last video card and had great results.....vodoo2 with voodoo3...overclocked less than 10% resulting in 3 times the fps. that was just that system and I was very careful and did not experience problems with those voodoos. Please do not use my discoveries to fry your own cards though I was careful and willing to replace.  |
