Hey guys ,

just wrote an overclocking tutorial for beginners and fellow overclockers - 1st PART:smile:.

The tutorial explains all the basics u need to know about Front side bus ,
CPU to FSB ratio , CPU multiplier.

I have used Q6600 and Q9300 as examples to explain FSB overcloking.

Its more of theory.

HERE IT IS :

Also i'll also explain RAM Ocing , RAM timings , All about CPU temperatures (tCase & tJunction) , OCing on AMD systems , OCing Core i7s and more... in my upcomming articles :cool:.
