i have a AMD atlhon 1.3 ghz and i wanted to know if i could overcloak it easely?
and how can i try to oc it safely?

1. Need to know the mobo and RAM
2. As for "OCing safely", that's more of an oxymoron (which is why OEMs dont support OCing in most cases). OCing safely is jus a measure of common sense really nothing to do with a technique

ok... now i got a shitty mobo ( came with HP computer) and im gonna get that soon

is it a good idea to OC?

Its a good idea to OC if you have common sense and do your background research Realistically the CPU isnt the performance bottleneck ... its the memory

the ram?
hmmm i dont have enough money to get good ram.. im gonna get cheap ones at like 25$ can lol ( Ultra 256MB PC2700 DDR 333MHz Memory)

Even though its only a general rule, getting cheap ram and wanting OC do not go hand in hand.
