Just thought I'd brag about my overclocks. They're pretty feeble to be honest, but I've cranked my fan speeds up to 100% on my CPU and Graphics card, and it sounds like a BEAST right now!

CPU is clocked at 2.46GHz (from 2.4GHz, so no bragging rights there). No V mod or multiplier +/-.
GPU is clocked at 570MHz from 540MHz, which I thought was decent.
GDDR3 is now clocked at 1250MHz from 1180MHz.

CPU runs at about 30C when idle, and I've not yet seen it go above 45C under stress.
GPU/GDDR3 runs at about 70C/50C when under load, and I've not had any errors or crashes yet.

My CPU is an Athlon 64 4000+, and my Graphics card is an ATI Radeon X850XT-PE. Nice card, but it's way out of date now, supporting DX9, PS2 and VS2, whereas we're in the day and age of PS3 and VS3. Doesn't natively support HDR either :/

He, I have a much better OC on my CPU - 1.8 - 1.9GHz!!!! YEAH! (I got bored and couldn't be bothered to continue).

I fried my GFX card, so it wont OC anymore, but before I had got about a 10% OC on it.

I don't really want to clock it any higher because it'll go over 70C under stress, which sounds toohot for my liking, though apparently they will cope up to 90C.

I wouldn't recommend going too high, but GFX cards are more resiliant than processors, I beleive.
