I have had my E8400 Core 2 Duo for about a month now and I am planning on upgrading my graphics soon and I wanted to overclock to help reduce any bottle-necking. I don't want any major overclocking (nothing over 4.0GHz), but enough to make a difference, say 3.6GHz. I have tried before, but even the slightest change upward to the CPU FSB, I have to jump it and reset it back. If you could please help me with this, that would be great!!
