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.
|
Ya but dont others successfully overclock theirs in the same situation I am in?
|
Hah, no, not really. They try, get little to no improvement and then burn out their hardware and have to get a replacement.

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

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.
