Perhaps one of the most widely asked questions is "What
settings should I use in my BIOS for overclocking?" Well, there are no hard and
fast rules for this. In general, there are always going to be compromises
between speed and stability. What this article shows is what the fastest
settings generally are, and gives some suggestions for which to use when
overclocking.
The motherboards I based this article on are the Abit BH6
and BX6-2. They seem to be what most overclockers are still using. Although
there are minor differences with other motherboards, this guide can still form a
basic skeleton for your motherboard's settings.
Again, let me stress that there are no "perfect" or even
"right" settings for overclocking. Basically, you start at a pretty
conservative setting and work your way faster from there. When you reach
instability, turn it back down a notch.
Best of luck!
