Does my computer have any Overclocking potential?

I have a Gateway G505 system... Pretty much stock except for an upgraded hard drive.

Anything I can overclock?
 
It's rare that mainstream pre-built systems are able to be overclocked. I'm going to say no.
 
Probably not. You can try the Proc, but I doubt it. Also, if you have an after market GPU, you can OC that.
 
I'm just reinforcing what these guys have already said, on a pre-built system it's next to none that will overclock. The only systems I've seen that overclock from the factory are Dell XPS systems.
 
Yeah, I noticed even the bios that the system has installed has no way to OC the processor, and the motherboard has the best ram it can support, and its PSU is only 350.

Although, whats odd is when I started it with the CMOS removed, and the buffer in the off position, the controls for the CPU showed up.
