Overclocking


            
             At it simplest, overclocking is nothing more than running a computer at a speed higher than the manufacturer intended, and while it does require a bit of knowledge and familiarity with our computer.
             Overclocking has a very long and storied history. As a matter of fact, overclocking probably first appeared in ancient Babylonia, when merchants would oil the slides on their abacus to enable faster calculations. Well, maybe not that long and storied, but it has indeed been around as long as there have been computers to overclock. In the early days, overclocking was a risky affair that often involved heavy physical modification to parts, and many times resulted in fried components. Since then, it's gotten steadily easier to overclock a system, but it really wasn't until the advent of Intel's venerable Celeron 300A that overclocking began to go mainstream.
             Another development that helped increase the popularity of overclocking was the development of software-based overclocking solutions. Motherboard manufacturers began enabling overclocking features in the system BIOS rather than the tedious process of manual jumper or dipswitch settings. Combine this ease of use with the tremendous overhead available in many of today's modern processors, along with the ever-present lure of getting something for little or nothing, and it's easy to see why overclocking has become such a popular pastime.
             1.2 PROBLEM STATEMENT.
             This project aim to solve some problems with current trend and technology in the computer world. The problem will be discussed with the significant of the project as to solve the problems .
             1.2.1 Problem Identification.
             We as end-user and myself as a student don't have enough money or resources to buy the latest high-end processor or PC that are very high in cost and price of getting the selected hardware. So, the easiest and understandable technique is to use the current or lower end PC and overclock it to match the high-end PC performance within minimal cost.
