    I just overclocked my Pentium D 930 3ghz....

    to 3.6ghz and tested to see how stable it would run. Opened up Firefox with 10 tabs, mozilla thunderbird, winamp and played the game F.E.A.R with the video settings set to max and it all runs great and no real change in temp. for the cpu.

        even without the overclocking I don't get what people are saying that F.E.A.R. wouldn't run good with the video setttings set to full.. I played the whole game with the vid settings set to max and it ran perfectly.

                      Any reason why you'd need to overclock a machine like this? I seriously doubt the extra 600 mghz is making much of a difference.

                                      10 tabs of firefox , winamp playing ,thunderbird , well they aren't very cpu intensive programs ,its more memory itensive crap

                                      fear on the other hand is cpu intensive

                                      overclocking like that isn't a realy bit stretch so of course you aren't going to tell much difference what you need to do is run something like 3dmark to tell the difference , one it before you overclocked and after you overclocked

                                      how much memory do you have?
