ive realised that i could overclock my computer my more than 400 mhz which save me like $600 instead of buying the latest release of cpu that people have dreamt about.... but buying a few fans and a few tips and tools from people ive manage to clock my comp faster and the the performance is obvious. the danger of overclocking is present but speding about $50 is worthwhile to get the best outta your comp

Yeah it works good but dont overclock it too much because then it doesnt help it, it just slows things down even more.

65 degrees celcius is bery abnormal.. You might consider buying more cooling units. Another 400 degrees and you can melt steel witht he thing. :P

All I can say is that done in moderation, it can be alright. But I still don't plan on overclocking my comp with AMD.
