Salobon, First rule of Over clocking is to Let your CPU start up and Use it at Stock for At least! one week, and check the Ambient Temperatures and Check again and Again and Do Benchmarks and Burn-in and Prime 95 testing on it(stock) then if every thing Goes Okay!

SLOWLY! go Do over clocking slowly Only MHz By MHz. Don't just start By getting A Cpu and Over clocking To the Level you Like it at >its just like a Car< You have to rev it and let it Warm up before You come anywhere close to Fully Burning it and Dragging it to full speed.

Even Sirheck Would agree, if you want a totally safe and careful overclock
