Overclocking an Athlon

[DHZ]

I have and Athlon 600Mhz and wat to overclock it but all of the clock setting are auto. I have the MSI MS-6167 board

you have to have a programming module attached to the processor in order to be able to overclock an Athlon. I believe they are not available to the general public yet so you cannot overclock that way. The only other way to do it is some creative soldering, which I have no idea of how to go about. Maybe someone else in the forum could tell you but I would advise being content with 600 until the module is easily available.
To find out more about your chip, see the review on the Athlon 700 on the front page of sysopt.

hope this helps......
