What is Overclock

-

Overclock composed of two words is over and the clock is meant to setup the clock for the processor mainboard and a VGA. overclock equated with making computers more quickly.

definition means : the computer is running at a higher clock speed than the specifications that should be.

For example :
Duron 600 MHz run at 1080 MHz clock.
Pentium 166Mhz overclock to 200MHz or more speeds, very little difference between 166Mhz and 200MHz. But good enough to speed on the Pentium era. Crowded overclockers began in 1997 when Intel issued a processor speed of 300Mhz Celeron with type 1 slot and driven into crowded crowded 450MHz. When it appeared the overclockers who began spur processor until the last line.
Overclock it to be fun for the fans own a computer.
With a minimal system, a user trying to find creative, what part of the system
which still can be optimized, with the additional cost and peripherals minimum.

At some point begins the hobbiest to overclock. Estimated overclock started in 1985. If not mistaken, the first computer sold the type of PC XT with Intel processor type (8088) and made more quickly to work with the NEC V20 processor. Understandably the speed of the PC XT computer before extraordinary slowness. Never mind the word Linux or Windows systems. What we know now that only IBM's PC-DOS as the operating system of a computer.

While only DOS diskette can be used as storage is on the computer including the operating system. In that year not many people know about your hard drive or memory like type. Hardware is still very expensive and simple. Never even heard the word Giga today. Memory is still in a matter of Kilo Byte, the first hard drive size is very large with a seating capacity of several dozen MB Overclock begin to do when the processor and the Pentium 486 Classic DX first. But spurred processor can only be done with jumpers on the mainboard.

Advantage and damage cause Overclock

Overclok have good Advantage. PC can work faster. But also there is a risk for this step. Sometimes the CPU does not want work Or hangs. Most bitter, broken chip processor permanently due to the temperature of the processor is too high. Processor working at this high temperature age can be reduced, which was designed to survive less is more for approximately 10 years. However, people who might have packed fun computer that uses ten
years ago in a box glass and displayed in a private room or work space as heritage. So consider! Is the 10 next year you do not want to replacing the current processor You wear?
Are you sure at the time your processor is still can be used for applications future?
If indeed you are will not use the processor the next ten years, why not try to overclock right?
To overcome the problem temperature, should be the business cooling.
This cooling that would be concern our main overclock.
Several years ago, usually overclock force the processor to work on clock speed of one level above it, such as the Pentium 120 to 133 MHz.
But now, with development of bus speed on motherboard, you can also clock and bus speed.
