Please let me know what should i do or what am i doing wrong. And i really want to Overclock this atleast upto 2.5 GHz. Thanks.
amds dont over clock as well as c2ds so i dont think you will get very far. do you have any after market cooling?
No, I meant do you have a aftermarket cooler, other than the stock fan and heatsink that came with the processor?
