Mac Overclocking...? (just an idea)

(1/5) > >>

IKEA:
I'm wondering if there's any way to overclock my 800mHz iMac to, say, 1gHz.
The only thing comparable to the PC BIOS on the Mac is Open Firmware.
I mean, there are otherways of OC'ing a PC, like for eg. apps like Clockgen, but I dont know if there's anything like that for Mac.

Cheers, and thanks in advance,
IKEA

overclocking sux

xyle_one:
What possible gain would overclocking the mac give you? Hotter processors, and inadequate cooling does not sound like a good idea to me either.

WMD:
It's possible to safely and easily overclock a G3-266 to 300Mhz.  No idea about any recent models.

Paladin9:
Why?


Overclocking does suck.  All it does is make your computer freeze all the time a run a tiny bit faster.
