I have a cool (and old) game, Virtua Fighter 2 (Virtua Fighter 2 - GameSpot.com). After I overclocked my system (bootcamp) it runs very fast, like too fast to be played. This did not happen instantly, i.e., a few weeks after the overclock. So is the only way to run it again at normal frame rate is to de-overclock my system?? Or is there any other solution?
OP
if the game is really running fast due to OCing then why is the 1 week delay to gain the performance boost - Oced performance boost ( specially cpu ) in any apps and games can be noticed immediately - I think the performance boost you got due to driver update ( specially gpu ) and make sure the vsync option in turned on in games gfx option r some game has the option for limit the FPS at 30/60 soo that you don't feel like the game is running too fast

Well, Today overclocked for first time. Not much coz i don't have aftermarket cooler right now. But planning for it.
C2D E7500 2.93 GHZ to 3.20 GHZ.
Did 30 min stress test with prime95 , played Gta iv and witcher 2, everything seems to be stable.
Didn't know much about overclocking , started learning today morning by google. What i did is to disable EIST and then Increased BUS SPEED to 286.

oc speed : 3.20 GHZ
Processor : C2d E7500
PSU : Corsair GS600
MOBO : Asus p5kl-am\ps (G31)
RAM : 1 gb Kingston ddr2 800 mhz
GRAPHICS : Sapphire HD 6790 ddr5 (amd/ati)
stock coolers
OP
value series mobos ain't so great when it comes to OCing - most of the time they don';t have cpu volt control/ cpu and ram ratio control etc. important settings and also no VRM heatsink - so don't go for more than 3.5 Ghz if you can manage proper cooling.
BTW, can you post a cpu-z screenshot of the memory tab.

Willing to OverClock Intel Core 2 Duo E4500.
Its manufacturer clock speed is 2.2ghz.
11 multipliers.
2MB L2 Cache.
Its running on Stock Fan , and it 4 years old.
I have placed a big Water-Cooler right in front of my CPU. Yeah the cooler we use for keeping ourselves cool.!
Is there any possibility of overclocking the CPU ?

@topgear if i go for a new mobo which can overclock intel e7500 upto 3.6 GHZ, suggest me some models and approx price.
Also i'll need a cooler , how much will it cost about?
Please tell me recommended max temperature on idle and 100% load (let prime95 for 10 min).
this cooler may give unwanted humidity to your cpu and components.
