AMD Overdrive OR Bios Overclock

Hi

Nice site this Toms is
just discovered it about a month ago.

I built a new computer this week.
its a nice upgrade from my early generation P4

I would like to know what is better for overclocking?
the BIOS, the ASUS software, or AMD Overdrive.

I am not interested much of an overclock, just enough to learn something new.


I have a AMD X2 5000+ BE
and Asus M3A78-T

I am thinking the BIOS is the best option but am not sure.
I would like to know the pros/cons of each option is possible.

Hi,

here's a K8 overclocking guide:

as a general rule:
bios overclocking is considered better
AOD needs to be reloaded or start at bootup to work
A black edition chip is easy to overclock through raising the multiplier. raising the FSB is much harder.
