I want to overclock my computer, marginally, here are my specs

C2d 2.13
ASUS p5b Mobo
2gb Corsair Value select 667 Ram
FSP 450W PSU
BFG OC'd 7600GT 256mb

The asus board has a NOS program for adjusting voltage and stuff like that, But i'm not really sure how to up the FSB or how much it'd speed stuff up.....

I'm only looking to get my processor up to like 2.3 or something, and In general I don't want to get anything into, relatively, danger, levels
to increase the FSB on a ASUS MB you have to set the CPU speed to "Mannual" under ADVANCE in BIOS. Use a calucator : FSB X Multipler = 2.3 dont change the Multipler, just the FSB speed.

=========================================
ex:
at 2.13GHz : FSB is 266, Multipler is 8 which works out to about 2.13

so to get 2.30 Ghz: increase FSB to 290x8 ~= 2.3GHz
=========================================


With such as a small increase, it should not be much trouble, if you have a good fan.
