k if u dont understand all this;

His modem connects to his router (ethernet)
His main computer connects to his router (wireless)

he wants to know how/if he can speed up the wireless

[Stephen!]

Yea, but it may get expensive. You'll need to upgrade to wireless N technology.

I'm going to have to call you out on being a COMPLETE MORON here, but hey.

This person didn't even know what overclocking meant, let alone how to do it. And you even admit overclocking RAM does seem "rather tricky", but then proceed to suggest he tries it.

So I'm going to suggest OP does not try it. The risks in overclocking peripherals is quite large, if not done correctly. Someone who knows NOTHING about OC shouldn't attempt to do it. I, even, only OC my video card using nVIDIA software.

I simply mentoined It as an alternative as he was interested. I mentoined that It could be hard but If it's really bugging him that much that he could read up about It and attempt it?

Obviously there is going to be disadvantages but If he does It correctly It should be fine? Please don't make obscure posts, as It seems you know nothing of the subject at hand.

Doesn't overclocking kill the life by it?

I remember reading OC'ing kills about 10 yr off a processor or something ;S

owel i'll have 10 years less

Yeah that's deffinetly an effect that can occur, but It depends how much overclocking you inted on doing. Some CPU's are not meant to be overclocked, wish I would have known that before I broke my old one about four years ago.

Anyways he doesnt want RAM, he wants to speed his wireless connection up

I'd suggest new router, new dongle.

Agreed, he wouldn't see that much of a difference with ram anyway. (+rep)

And maybe your temporary files are packed with junk? There are tutorials online on how you can search for them, as not always when you clear your cache will you get rid of the unwanted files.

Overclocking is the process of forcing a computer component to run at a higher clock rate (more clock cycles per second) than it was designed for.

Though personally I've never overclocked RAM and overall It does seem rather tricky.
But you should give it a try.

It's not hard, but if you do mess up, your computer can over-heat and **** up. I'd suggest you just upgrade to 4GB of ram and have two 2GB 'sticks' of RAM installed onto the motherboard. You'll notice the difference a lot more and that extra gig doesn't cost a lot more.
