if your not using a prebuilt computer i would suggest going through the bios cause it overclocks alot more then the OC programs for windows.

yes, there are many programs. but, as we've already stated... you could seriously screw your computer up by overclocking in windows. what we mean by this, is that you might lose all the info on you're hard drive if you don't know what you're doing.
just use the bios... its easier and changes the frequency before the computer even boots.
