The Eee is a great little device, but why not make it that little bit better? How's 1GHz sound for a speed boost?

Overclocking the Eee is the best way to improve its performance. Many people add extra RAM, faster RAM (which is a waste of time, more on this later), and cut down their OSs (see here) in order to squeeze every last bit of processing power available.

What is overclocking?

Overclocking is the process of increasing component clock speeds above stock.

Theory behind overclocking

Overclocking is not a difficult concept, but it does require some background knowledge. Due to the identical processing hardware in each Eee PC, knowing the theory isn't essential for this guide, but if you're interested, read this tutorial on the subject here.

Risks and Warranty

Overclocking can cause hardware damage and software corruption on rare occasions. Overclocking the Eee may void its warranty, so do so at your own risk. I am not liable for any damage caused by following this tutorial.
