Overclock This

Just say no to DIY overclocking and let us do it for you! We'll factory overclock your Intel® Core2 Extreme Quad-Core Processor.4 Yep, you read that right: factory overclock, which is something that most other major PC manufacturers don't do.

Overlock ThisOverclocking the FX's CPU jacks up your clock speed to 3.66GHz and drives an overall processor speed increase of 20%. Plus, we'll even offer our standard limited warranty1 on any overclocked system, ensuring that you get a stable, overclocked system tricked out for maximum speed. (Available only on the FX541XT)


DDR3 Memory

New Memory Technology

Your FX desktop will zip through intense 3D graphics processes and get sleek, seamless animation during your gaming outings with DDR3 memory. With nearly twice the bandwidth of DDR2 memory, this new technology delivers lower power consumption (as well as better battery life for mobile users) and crisp visuals for graphics-rich applications like Windows Vista® and next-gen games.

4 Intel® Core2 Extreme Quad-Core Processors are "unlocked" CPUs—the frequency of the processor can be adjusted beyond the stated clock speed. Gateway's FX540 systems configured with these processors include a factory-overclocked CPU option. Gateway will configure and test such systems to ensure reliable operation at the specified overclocked CPU settings. Note: Improperly overclocking a CPU may result in causing the system not to boot, system instability and/or unpredictable results that may not be readily apparent. Gateway does not recommend changing the processor's clock speed from the factory set frequency as this may void the system's warranty. If a system has been modified, please refer to the system documentation in order to reset the processor to the original settings.

5 Gateway Limited Warranty does not cover and Gateway is not responsible for damages caused by the combination of Gateway-branded products with other non-Gateway-branded Products, Accessories, Parts or Components. Any equipment or components that were not included in your product as originally sold to you are covered, where applicable, by the original manufacturer.
