Ziggyjuarez - Noob Q's

[ziggyjuarez]

alright im trying to get more info on useing and improving computers.
1st.what info do i need to give you,so i can overclock my cpu
2.how long is it ok to leave on my computer?[my room is quite cool]
thats all i can think of right now.try to keep your A simple. :D

[Cheese]

2. As long as you have adequate cooling on your PC then there is no harm in leaving it on 24/7. Mine has been on since Febuary, only being turned off for upgrades and rebooting.

Unless you are one of those hippy types and worry about the environment and stuff... ;)

i think most of the power goes straight through the monitor. :unsure:

[ziggyjuarez]

thats good,i turn mine off at night.

[Voetsek]

Make and model of the motherboard, CPU info and current temps would be a good start.

MBM5 (http://mbm.livewiredev.com/mbm5add.html) can be set up to execute the shutdown at any temp you wish.
Also, many motherboards have thermal protection programs built into BIOS.

Then you&#39;ll be laughing at a PC that will refuse to boot into Windows.

I find that kinda amusing myself. :P

Ziggy,

After looking at the users manual for your board it would appear that you don&#39;t have ANY options to overclock your chip.
Sorry.

sounds like a challenge to me

Judging by the number of work-units you have completed, your computer is already pretty fast...
