Re: clockgen???

I have never seen an app yet that can overclock a cpu well. Doing it manually in the BIOS is always best. The same goes for flashing the bios too.

Re: clockgen???

greenbrucelee, OC'ing via the Bios ic certainly the best method but the OP said there are no OC'ing abilities in the Bios.
Most purchased PC Bios are very limited concerning changes and settings.

Re: clockgen???

2.0 to 2.1 isn't much of an improvement.
