Hey everyone, am new to Overclocking so am here to find out how to do it.
I would like to OC my Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3.0Ghz to at least 3.6 and 4.0 max
Everytime i use ntune nothing works.

Does anyone know if the COOLER MASTER GeminII is any good? Also does anyone know a good Blue led 120mm fan to use with it?

overc locking is best donw via the bios. less chance of a windows coruption frying your mobo.

Kick up all the board voltages to max.
Set your clocks to 4-4-4-26.
This will help.
Run unlinked.
Set ram to one half the FSB.
