Well, I have an MSI 6600LE and I'm thinking of overclocking it but don't really know where to begin.
When I right click on the desktop and click properties there's a tab which says 'MSI clock'. When I click on the tab it shows three scrollers, one called the "2D clock", one called the "3D clock" (both under the heading 'core clock') and one called the "memory clock". Here is the info:
2D clock: 300Mhz
3D clock: 300Mhz
Memory clock: 400Mhz
It allows me to increase the speeds of all three of these, but I'm a little nervous. How will I know when to stop? I have no idea what the gpu temp is (system temp is usually around 24-30 degrees and cpu temp 27-30 degrees).
If I overclock too much what will happen? Will it catch fire? Will the computer just shut off?
Could you give me some advice and maybe tell me if you think this is a good idea?
Thanks
