I have been looking up how to over clock my on board Nvidia GeForce 6150 Se nForce 430.
And since I read its a chip set rather then a vid card if I could over clock it. I think if i read right Its possible, now on wikipedia says the max core clock speed is 425 (MHz), Now is that the speed it is default, by that I mean can I overclock higher then 425? or is it the max? (since right now its alreayd running at that so im guessing no?). Another thing is how high is safe to overclock it? I dont want to over clock it to much Just a little. And if I over clock it am I over clocking the video card or the chipset?

And FYI I did do lot of research in google just osme things Could not find speficalty for my compoents

It's not safe to overclock it at all. It wasn't built for an enthusiast or expert market and thus uses much lower quality components which very likely do not like overclocking at all.

Successful overclocking or not, you will always be causing damage to your hardware when you overclock.

Hah, no, not really. They try, get little to no improvement and then burn out their hardware and have to get a replacement.

Not if the hardware was built to handle those tolerances anyways, or is really higher-end hardware that was down-marked to meet supply demands.

The stupidity of many forum regulars simply baffles me. It makes me want to just leave the forums, but then the stupidity is so entertaining that you can't help but to come and laugh at people.

I pray to the Flying Spaghetti Monster that you are joking about what overclocking is.

You do realize that the comment wasn't directed toward you (for once), right? At least, you realize what overclocking is... and (once again) even if you didn't, you know enough by now to Google it...

Besides, there's no real denying that this forum is a cesspool of idiocy. Usually it goes without saying, but I had to comment on the question of what is overclocking is...

I know it was not to be but still I was like him once and know how it feels, Not everyone gonna be smart about things, specially on a gaming forums so you cant get mad you know its better to not reply then to reply negative. This forum needs to learn that badly

If you ask an incredibly stupid question, you should be prepared for a flood of snide comments. Perhaps I should just start ignoring everybody that insists on ignoring that Google (or any other capable search engine) exists. Then again, that would also decrease the entertainment value of the forums.

I have no problem being helpful to people that actually show effort before resorting to flooding the forum with question threads. I don't see why I should be willing to help someone that has no intention on doing any of the leg work. To be "nice"? That's overrated and easily taken advantage of if you don't have limits. I think requiring people to not be annoyingly stupid is a pretty reasonable request, don't you think?

lol are you kidding? not all of us are big computer no-it-alls.. i'm sure there's stuff you don't know. Don't be an arrogant jackass... i'm sure not too many people are impressed by your "oh so superior knowledge". Also, you think it wasn't directed at me? Well, you weren't even in the conversation either, so my question wasn't directed to you was it? Now instead of being an inconsiderate jerk, you could answer my question. Don't you have better things to do that flame people for no reason? Now grow up and come back when you realize what a jerk you are.

I'm not that much into computers, either. I, honestly, couldn't tell you off the top of my head how to begin to overclock. I still know to do a web search to find out that information if need be. Heaven forbid I expect people to know how to find information on their own.

I realize I'm an asshole, but it's a fun alternative than reward people's refusal to figure shit out for themselves.

Overclocking onboard graphics doesn't result in a huge gain anyways. Even a cheap, pedestrian graphics card would run circles around your chipset's integrated graphics.

Well i got to agree that the question you placed right down there SSnipe, was unnecessary.
But most probably like i know people are retarded but still the self initiative is very poor from your side.
Just google it the next time if it is important to you, if not.. Don't make yourself look like a fool.

DAMN WHAT AN IDIOt

Easiest way to overclock your nvidia card is downlaodign the latest forceware drivers from your favorite source, get coolbits 2.0 tweak & install, open the nvidia control panel, go to overclock setting or something like that, and fiddle with the settings till either the computer needs a reset, or you get artifacts in the screen.

That's how easy it is. Didn't even have to google for it. For Nvidia cards it is the same for every type.

For Ati you'll need to use the "advanced" control panel, enable overdrive, and start fiddling around till either the computer needs a reset, or you get artifacts in the screen.

Here goes the same as for Nvidia, this way works for all Ati cards.

ALL overclocking is PURELY and SOLY on YOUR OWN RISK
