Hello Zaertix.
You're meaning ,My speculation is TRUE !!
OKKKAAAAYYYY!!!! I give up now .
I'll chill out my mind, forgive my computer , watch many HARVEST MOON - MAGICAL MELODY game play on youtube.com
And get my HARVEST MOON - MAGICAL MELODY and Dolphin SVN 2745 play on my friend's labtop when I've free time.
Because his current system are:
CPU: AMD Turion 64 X2 @ 2240 GHz
RAM: 3078 MB (I'm not sure with type fo RAM)
Video: GeForce (I'm not sure 8400, 8300, 8200 or 8500) @ 128 MB
Monitor: (I don't know but I'm sure his resulotion is 1280X800 Pixels )
Mainboard:Acer Aspire (I can't remember version of it)
OS : Microsoft Windows XP SP2 Professional
And the last, Thank very much for you make me happy even my computer can't play my favorite game

E2140 CPU is a good processor
...especially when you overclock it *grins*
yeah if you overclock it you should be able to get alot more.
Hello Glurion and cmccmc.
Overclock the CPU is good idea.
But I want to see my computer longest as possible(I want keep my computer's live more then 7 years but now my current computer is 1.2 years old)
ฺBecause my old computer is has age=me I'm 15 years old and now it's alive !!!.
I don't want aggrieve my computer.
That is my computer do the best.
And the last, Thank you for your good advise both
.
normally i don't advice people to o/c cpu, it will shorten your cpu lifespan.
And if you mess it up, you can risk frying your pc.
Depends on how well cooled your system is, for example i have 4 fans and a giant heatsink and runs at 38c idle and 45-50c full load, so my cpu should be fine for a few years, besides by the time your cpu dies you will most likely have upgraded by then.
as long as you have a good cooling system for your cpu, motherboard your all good. in that cooling system make sure there are ways for hot air to get out of the case from the top, like holes or fans near the top of the case(if your doing some extreme overclocking)(heat tends to naturally rise, there is no exception inside a pc case). monitor your temperatures as often as you can, use coretemp to monitor your temps in dolphin(dolphin is one of the most cpu intense programs, so your cpu will get hotter in this than most pc games) check your idle and load temps. make sure your idle temp is below 50c, and your load temps dont exceed 75c. apply arctic silver to your cpu right before you place your cpu water block or fan, this will help drastically lower your cpu temperatures during idle and load. also make sure theres good amount of cooling near the northbridge, because overclocking will make those temperatures rise more than normal. make sure they dont go over 50c on a core 2 quad/duo motherboard(x38/x48), and on core i7 motherboard(x58) not to exceed 60c for northbridge. id recommend liquid cooling the northbridge if you plan to do heavy overclocking, or/and make sure there is a good amount of fans that are sucking the hot air out of your case right near the cpu and northbridge. if you follow my recommendations, you are going to not worry about anything bad happening to your motherboard. also make sure your motherboard is known for overclocking, as this will help drastically in terms going to ur cpus oc limit. and make sure your ram is the highest for the cpu, as this will help drastically help you reach your oc limit for your cpu. your ram dictactes how far you can overclock your cpu, so make sure you get the highest speed ram.
As long as you don't do something stupid like I did when I over clocked my ancient windows 98 256 Mhz to 1.5 Ghz and it instantly fried, you should be ok for a while
*Note on overclocking*
Bad cooling is not always the reason a CPU dies.
You can have a cpu cooled with liquid nytrogen and it can still die.
The reason: increasing voltage innecesarily.
As long as you increase only the cpu cycles, keep the voltage at default level (even reduce it to increase life if you can) and get a VERY GOOD cooling system. Your cpu will not fry soon.
Without increasing Vcore on E2140, frequencies can rise up to 3ghz (if you're a lucky owner).
A sane choice would be to OC from 1.6ghz to 2.0ghz (not more, due to fsb and memory), try reducing Vcore on tiny amounts to see if it doesn't affect stability, and enable the SpeedStep feature (under little load, cpu lowers multiplier and voltage to reduce power consumption and heat).

Or just get a new cpu then.
