I am not sure because I haven't overclock my CPU and it is something I am not going to do. I have however overclocked my GPU.
The standard temp for a A64 3500+ V core is around 35'o
I live in the tropics and it is autumn (coming) so its doing alright. I have about 5 fans blowing in/out.

I am not sure what else you can overclock. sorry.

I believe that you need ram in the config 2,2,2,5 PC3200 (400Mhz) and you shouldn't have any problems. :wink:
