Overclock by using divider cant get huge performance gain IIRC.
Someone might correct me if i am wrong in this.

QUOTE(kmarc @ May 17 2007, 09:39 PM) Why post are you referring too? Is the the RAM overclock or CPU overclock? referring to the post above my post which is your post   overclock using divider mainly focus on CPU overclock. But then, it is still the only way to get most out of your processors since if the rams cant keep up with the FSB. This post has been edited by LittleLinnet: May 18 2007, 02:16 AM |

QUOTE(kmarc @ May 18 2007, 06:38 AM) Errr..... pls look at the guide again. It is clearly stated that the guide was on CPU overclocking and NOT ram overclocking! I know, that's why I said, you might not getting huge performance gain compared to 1:1 since the RAM is not running syn with FSB. Which is, at other ratio other than 1:1.Basically, CPU overclocking will be involving RAM overclocking because the FSB is running 1:1 with RAM. Since it is using divider, RAM speed is slower than FSB thus slower bandwidth. |

QUOTE(kmarc @ May 18 2007, 02:28 PM) OIC, sorry for misunderstanding you. but still really dont know the the difference also.Ya, it's true. Definitely in overclocking, it is preferable for the RAM to run in sync with the CPU (i.e. 1:1). However, in some cases, the RAM may not be able to reach the Mhz of the CPU, and thus the role of RAM divider. This is especially true in X2, where a lot of them are great overclockers and can be overclocked by 40-50 Mhz on the HTT/FSB (e.g. 250 Mhz on HTT). Many beginner's rig only have value ram and most of them can't even go 5-10 Mhz above baseline!!! (i.e. 205-210 Mhz). Hmmm..... maybe I should come up with a beginner's guide to RAM overclocking....   Like @ 4:5 HTT 250MHz, RAM 200MHz vs 1:1 HTT 210MHz, RAM 210MHz Bandwidth or processing speed? Tough choice XD |
