Overclocking...

[DARKSHADOW]

Do not overclock a Pentium processor. Intel specifically designs their processors to counteract users from doing this. You will damage your processor

EVer heard of the celeron,famous for overclocking

opinion, rumors?
this article shows the lengths that Intel will go just to stop users from overclocking their processors.
I guess I am just an AMD fan as they are much cheaper and can be overclocked with much greater success.

OK, now show me an article that says AMD encourages overclocking.

Supernatural,
Sorry, I did not mean that AMD literally encourages overclocking. It is just that their designs are very flexible and in that way encourages(allows) owners to tweak as they'd like.
Whereas Intel has publicly stated they don't want anyone messing with their chip design and/or clock settings.
