|

Should I do it?
I have a Dell PC , only about 3 months old
Quad Core Q6600 , 3GB of RAM, Windows Vista and Superclocked 8600GTS
I know how to overclock and also know the risks
but In order for me to overclock I need to flash my bios
So should I do it? If so, whats the easiest and safest way

There is no easy way, but make sure you read the instructions carefully.

the basic rules of flashing:
1. Never flash anything unless you absolutely need too.
2. Never flash from Windows.
3. Don't fuck it up.

Exactly and remember if you fail at flashing bios your computer wont start up anymore.

Pray that your power does not poop out during the middle of it.
