Best software for 2 Antminer U1's? And overclocking?

[kadrek]

I ordered a couple of Antminer U1's just to play with and I'm wondering what mining software would be the best to use. Is there a good guide on how to set them up?

Also, in the amazon review by DJ Knight he says he was able to overclock them to 2.5 GH/s using AntGen. Is that not safe as they only say to overclock to 2.2 GH/s? And where would I find the newest version of AntGen? Or should I not use it? Here's the amazon page, http://www.amazon.com/Bitmain-Antminer-Block-Erupter-1-6Gh/product-reviews/B00HIUIGDI/ref=dp_top_cm_cr_acr_txt?showViewpoints=1

I posted this in a different forum section before I found this one D: sorry

Use BFGminer or CGminer to mine with your U1s. I prefer BFGminer because it looks a bit better, but they both do the same job.

and have a look here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=437666.0 on setting it up.

All overclocking has some detrimental effect, and carries some risk of damage. Not all devices can be o/c'd to the same level. Start with a small overclock, then make small steps checking the hardware errors and stability. Extra cooling may be required.

Keep a close look at the temp when you try OC.
Don't do it aggressively...instead increase the clock rate step by step...
