So, I just decided I'd like to overlcok just a bit. My sysyem is an AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Vencie Core with a 939 motherboard made by Biostar. It runs great. CPU idles at 22 degrees celcius, max loads about 28-30. Stock heatsink and fan.

So, should I overclock? And if so, how much would you sugest?

He'll be lowering the RAM freq *well* below 240 MHz without some *serious* quality RAM...

The BIOSTAR socket 939 mbs are not historically known for stellar OC ability, but, hitting a 10% OC may be quite do-able....

to not overclock should be illegal.
all venices should hit 2.4-3.0ghz easy
