Mainly i upgraded to i7 because of FSX...That was the reason of going directly into Overclocking as soon as i got it. FSX needs infinite GHZ...the higher the better they say..And it is true.Since i see many people here that are or will be on this path i am just putting down what I did in order to learn how to overclock. I thought sharing this info may help others.First of all i want to say that there are dozens of other options out there to do it. This is just what worked for me. Dont shoot me :)))I am reading/searching the following forums (order of preference):1. http://www.overclock.net/2. http://forums.extremeoverclocking.com/3. http://www.overclockers.com/AND also my motherboards manufacturer forum . THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT BECAUSE THERE IS NO GENERIC OVERCLOCKING OUT THERE. GENERIC ADVICES ARE ONLY FOR CONSULTANCY, NOT IMPLEMENTING TO A DIFFERENT SYSTEMFor Gigabyte i am following this: http://forums.tweaktown.com/gigabyte/Also the most importnat..Reading stuff....Hundrends of pages regarding overclocking.I put the ones that i read and combined in order to understand what is happening:1. From Gigabyte. Interesting as it says in relatively easy wording what is happening: http://benchmarkreviews.com/images/reviews/motherboards/GA-EX58-EXTREME/corei7_x58_bios_guide.pdf2. The first i start reading: http://www.overclock.net/intel-cpus/538439-guide-overclocking-core-i7-920-930-a.html3.
