upping the FSB and downing the voltage is a seriously stupid this to do since the system needs more power the more you over clock, doing can cause you system to crash, overheat or files to corrupt. if you over clock your CPU's FSB to 180mb you need to also over clock you ram to because if your CPU is trying to communicate with you ram at its speed of 180 and it can only handle 160 then your going to loose data, and cause over heating because it has to over work and that’s bad. So you need to make sure you ram is clocked at the same sped as your CPU or to a ratio, a ratio of 1:0.8 is normally good.

when your over clocking and your using a air cooling (a fan) you should always keep the voltage standard to start off with then increase you FSB a little test it increase it more till it becomes unstable. when it becomes unstable you should either raise the voltage, but if you having an over heating problem then its best not to do this because it causes a lot more heat, so you should just take it back to were it was stable and your done you've reached you over clocking limit, but if not raise the voltage then increase the FSB till it because unstable again and repeat till you reach the FSB limit or heat limit.

Of coarse if its over heating you could just cool it better, water cooling is what most people go for as its a lot cheap then most over methods plus it works good. But I won’t go into that because my post is long enough

All processors are different, DIFFERENT, just because someone you know got a certain speed doesn’t mean your processor will hit the same speed because there all different


Note: over clocking may cause your system to not last as long or over heat and die if this or any thing like this happens after following what I have said in my post its not my fault.
