Almost all modern processors have some overclocking potential. The easiest and most convenient way to change and increase the processor frequency is to overclock the system bus (FSB). The processor bus frequency directly affects the speed of the computer as a whole. In addition, using this method, you can postpone the need to buy a more powerful processor for some time.
Instructions
Step 1
On average, a higher system bus speed increases processor speed by approximately 20%.
So, to change the system bus frequency, go to BIOS and find the CPU Clock value in the parameters. Press Enter on this value and enter the new bus frequency. Next to this value, you will see the processor multiplier and the processor frequency itself. Don't be afraid to overdo it with the frequency value. Modern processors are designed in such a way that when such a situation arises, the system automatically resets the value to the default settings and reboots the computer, after which everything falls into place. Therefore, feel free to experiment with frequency values and do not be afraid that you can harm the processor.
Step 2
You can also change the processor multiplier, which will also affect the value of the motherboard bus frequency. The multiplier value is in the same place as the frequency value. For example, if you have a 133 bus with a multiplier of 10, change it to 15 and get a new 2.0 Ghz frequency instead of the previous 1.33 Ghz. Just keep in mind that the multiplier must be unlocked in the processor. To find out, take a look at the processor markings. Among such processors from Intel, AMD or Black Edition, it should be marked Extreme.
Step 3
You can also change the bus frequency by software. To do this, download and install the Al Booster program on your computer. Run the application and, in the window that appears, find the Display tuning panel icon. Click on it for an additional panel to appear. Find the Tuning section on this panel, in which check the Exsternal frecuency box.
Step 4
Thus, you have activated the bus acceleration. At the bottom you will see the plus and minus icons, clicking on which, increase or decrease the bus frequency. After choosing the appropriate frequency, click the Apply button at the bottom of the program window. After that, restart your computer and work with the new frequency.
