Re: overclocking 4200+ dual core

You've got a good board. I use gigabyte myself but your temperatures per core are not going to cut it as far as any major overclocking.

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4200+ hardware monitor

Temperature sensor 0 53°C (127°F) [0x66] (core #0)
Temperature sensor 1 54°C (129°F) [0x67] (core #1)

When you did this, was your machine idle? If it was idle, don't bother, if it was under full load, then quite possibly you may be able to squeeze a little more depending on other factors such as your PS and HS/Fan.

Cooling for your case is also imperative. Let me know what you've got and let me know if you took this reading while idle or under full load.

Thanks.
