CPU Help

[oscarfourzero]

Hi All,

       I have a system for running FS2004 it has a AMD Proccesor 2400 running at 1 09 GHz and 1G Ram AGP, i could do with upgrading the CPU but could someone explain to me what overclocking does, would this [done right] increase the speed as i get some bad frame rates depending on the view in the sim, down to 4/5 sec and other times 28/30 a sec ,

      I have a nVidia 7600GS card on a Abit AN7 motherboard , as it seems harder to get new processors now for AGP systems would this overclocking do the trick.

      Thanks for any help,

       Cheers,

        Roger.

WPHEWWW, let me take this one thing at a time! Overclocking is a trick to make your cpu work faster than it is designed too. For example, if you have a 1.2Ghz processor,

Although I am not sure what the gain would be, but I can recommed a Gainward Bliss 7800 GS+.

There's one on ebay for about US$160 ...
