My BIOS has an option to overclock by percentages, i.e. OC by 5%, 10%, 15%, etc. I don't really know much about overclocking, and how to do it manually (setting the voltages, etc), so I gave this option a shot. I did 5, then 10, then 15%. At 15%, my P4 640 3.2ghz is running at 3.67ghz. Temps overclocked are the exact same as they are without the overclocking (roughly 38c idle, 51-52 playing F.E.A.R. for an hour).
My question is.... the 15% overclock... is this just OC'ing the CPU, or it is also doing the motherboard and/or RAM? My mobo manual didn't really explain this (other than to say what the options were). I have an Asus P5LD2-Deluxe.
