Hi guys. I recently purchased a new setup (thanks to some of the guys in the other forums) and ended up purchasing an AMD ® Athlon 64 3000+ 64 Bit, (1800mhz) 128K L1, 512K L2 Cache 800 FSB socket 939 and a Gigabyte K8NF-9 (Nforce 4, Socket 939) + 512 Ram etc.. and have been doing some research on the net and a lot of ppl have been able to over clock this CPU to at least 2.2GHZ. I was wondering if anyone has the EXACT same setup as me and has overclocked there machine. I will more than happy with 2.0 GHZ. If anyone can help it will really be appreciated. I am still a noob at overclocking but don't really have the $$$ to mess around myself (incase i break something). So I kinda wanna just overclock it to 2 GHZ and then use my PC. I am clueless when it comes to voltage adjustments and PCI-E/AGP bus speed locks etc.. so i will need all the adjustments :(

Thanks in Advance
