Overclocking tool for AMD proc?
 
Well is there a good tool so i can over clock my 1.5 gig amd anthalon 2600 to 2+ gigs?

Real geeks use the BIOS ;)
ClockGen is the non-BIOS option of choice.

Real geeks call the BIOS, CMOS.

No, the CMOS means Complementary Metal Oxide Semiconductor and is the place where the BIOS settings are stored, but is not the actual BIOS. If you are looking to change subsystem functions, you use the BIOS and not the CMOS - the BIOS uses the CMOS.

Please tell us whether your computer is custom-built or came from an OEM - this will help determine the type of BIOS you have and possible restrictions on overclocking.

So do companies like Dell, Alienware etc block overclocking or sumthin?

Sometimes, yes. They install BIOS software that only allows basic functions to be altered by the user. This can be fixed by updating your BIOS to a new software, but this is risky.

Ok and this is @ Ziodberg... Wouldn't it be dangerous overclocking 500mhz on a AMD?
