The Ultimate CPU Overclocking Guide!
this is me giving a small instructional video on how to overclock a Q8200 on a P45 mobo PLZ NOTE this is will a gigabyte mobo and i wont be able to help u with others. if u have a diff mobo PLZ look at diff videos or look on google.











@MitchKelly93 try to find where it says CPU host controller and disbale that.
you seem to know a far bit
in my BIOS it tells me my ghz and what not
and PCu speed and ram. yet i cannot change the speed of my CPU in bios. its in grey and cannot go over it with the arrow keys
im on win7 32bit
@kdawgmaster 10x a lot
@Sashev u can use any DDR2 ram but its better to get higher end ram that has a spe.ed of atleast 1066. I like corsair the best
@kdawgmaster can you recomend me some good Ram for overclocking ? can i use ddr2 ?
@Sashev yes cooler for the CPU and any kind of ram that will allow for the overclock
@kdawgmaster cooler for the Cpu ? and ram what kind ? DDR 3 , but on what mhz ?
@Sashev a good cooler and good ram.
i have P45DE Asrock , can i overclock mine to 3.1 ghz ? what do i have to have , so it can run properly ? i have gt 9800 1gb , and 8 gb ram 800mhz ddr2
I got Asus P5Q-E + Q8200 @ 3.5 Ghz, it could go higher it all depends on memory at your cooling.
I’ve got an ASUS P5KC MB and i just clocked my Q8200 to 3.1 GHz, i think that’s almost the maximum, maybe 3.13GHz. I got a Scythe Mugen 2 Rev. B, and The temperatures are between 49°C and 53°C on Toast, depending of the room temperature.
@just0408 how much of an overclock will depend also on the cooling u have. having stronger cooling alows for better temps and that alows for a higher clock. make sure that when you overclock that you monitor the temps when playing games. and yes most of the time there will be a noticeable increase
@kdawgmaster I have not much fps i guess around 35 when i low the graphic settings to 800×600 on low/medium, without AA or maybe 2x AA in DiRT2. And i have a ATI Radeon HD 3850 videocard which i did ‘overdrive’ with the ‘autotune’ option in the Catalyst Control Center. But i was wondering what the effects will be if i succesfully overclock my CPU to 3,3 GHz or so. I already want to play Codemasters F12010 as smooth as possible.
@just0408 whats ur FPS now and whats ur graphics card.
i also have the Intel Core 2 Quad Q8200 2,33 Ghz, is it completely save to overclock my processor likewise? And will i notice severe difference with some intensive games like DIRT2?
i have the q8200 on a p5q mobo, just clocked mine to 2.8 def a diffrence lovin it..i have the thermal take big water cooler kit on mine also…nice and cool prob gonna try clock 3ghz next
@lightray15 good now u cant hear anything
@2:11 dude u blew my ears out
@cssfreak2 its an aftermarket cooler zalman 9700
@Chillehhhh do u have a stock cooler?
@kdawgmaster thx man
@Chillehhhh mine runs fine but when it comes to overclocking there is no recommended as the companies cant ensure that it will work overclocked.
so how is ur comp running now now that u overclocked? i wanna put mine @ 2.66 wat is the recommended overclock for this?
@NLglennNL core temp is the best
