    I was hoping someone could give a little insight on how to do a simple overclock via set FSB for us q9000 users.

    This will be my first time doing something like this, so try to cover even the most basic things :)

    Everyone's gotta start somewhere. Thanks!

    Someone has to find the PLL first....if it can be found.

    Well, for starters, you'd need to open up your system, literally.

    Woah. I thought using Set fsb was sort of the easy way of doing it that didnt require opening it up? just set a slider or something?

    and what's the PLL?
