Hello all I am looking at overclocking to get better frame rates and performance form my machine. I have a gigabyte 7950 and amd 8350 fx. I also have biostar ta990 fxe motherboard and 8gb ram. I was wondering how easy it is and weather all in all it would be worth it. Here is gpuz numbers at the moment gpu clock 1000 and memory clock 1250 tem[p 32 dgrsC idle fan speed 33 % VDDC 0.950V. CPUID is 1..02 to 1.38 temp is 12-13dgrsC any help would be appreciated oh and also I don't have stock cooler on cpu I have COOLER MASTER Hyper 212 EVO RR-212E-20PK-R2 Continuous Direct Contact 120mm Sleeve CPU Cooler and the case I have is COOLER MASTER HAF 912 RC-912-KKN1 and the RAM is Crucial Ballistix 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 and the info on that is DRam frequency is 666-667, fsb dram 3:10 and the timings are showing in cpuz as 9-9-9-24 then the last one says 33. Any help much appreciated and is everything running ok? Thanks in advance.

Crucial Ballistix 8GB (2 x 4GB) 240-Pin DDR3 SDRAM DDR3 1866 and CPU-z show 667 ??? you must set in bios
DRAM timming configuration- memclock value set to 1600 let other auto - save and boot see at CPU-Z
other way easy auto OC is vtech engine v6/ v8 ... opps don't use v10and v12 it's dangerous for your system , try max v8 may want stable .. it's easy and you must whre the jumper ClearCMOS

Just remember 2 things kill electrical components generally heat and electricity. And electricity generates heat.
As overclockers we generally pump more electricity to make components stable which in turn makes it produce more heat. So get a good heatsink so that you can control the temps which will help solve one part of the problem.
Besides that read up on overclocking thoroughly and I hope you have the best of luck.
