How do I overclock my AMD K6-2 400?

Looking at overclocking my AMD but have no idea how or how fast I can? Will I need any new cooling devices or a new motherboard? What Information should I gather about my computer first before I start?

I just upgraded from the K6-2 400. Not to discourage you but it is not a very good overclocker. All I could get was up to 450. What you need to do is get a better fan than stock. I had a global win, there site recommends fans made for the K6-2. You will also need to change jumpers. Check your motherboard manual on how to do this. Mine was an Asus P5-a. I changed the multiplier jumper to 4.5, left the bus frequency at 100 mhz, and changed the core voltage jumper to 2.3 if I remember correctly. Anyway good luck......

Same here.
I could only get 50 mhz out of it. Didnt need to bump the voltage,it ran with stock.
Additional cooling is a must, they run hot.
