Can I overclock my Eee, and if so, how?
Technically speaking, if you run the Eee’s CPU at 900MHz, you aren’t overclocking. You’re merely running the CPU at its rated speed. However, it is also possible to overclock the processor to around 960MHz before the system becomes unstable (your mileage may vary, of course). To run the CPU at 900MHz, you can either install the updated BIOS as mentioned in question 1.2 above, use SetFSB for Windows XP as described in this forum posting, or follow this thread for Linux. For the Linux system there is also a wiki describing how to overclock: Overclocking the Front Side Bus (FSB) to 100 MHz with a Linux kernel module. On Windows XP, only SetFSB allows you to actually overclock your Eee and exceed the 900MHz CPU speed. Ensure you read all the postings in the forum thread before attempting to overclock, or post back errors. Note that overclocking runs the very real risk of damaging your Eee.
