    hi i heard that you can make a 1.8ghz processor to about a 2.8 ghz processor or something like that, if this is true can someone give me a step by step tutorial, or a link because i tried searching it but i came up short, please anything will be helpful

    ps. i think it is called OVERCLOCKING or something like that but im not quite sure.

    yes, it's called overclocking. we have an official thread on it here. for the most part, it's not worth it. you can typically only get a 10% increase in speed and keep stability. google first, post again after you've thoroughly searched for answers.
