fren, down clock will not burnt the processor. it will also sometimes makes the processor temp lower coz of less clockcycles. but if u are to downclock the fsb to 133mhz, then u might also consider to downclock the ram speed to 266mhz (PC2100) to let them sync so is it more stable.

But lowering the FSB will reduce heat and preserve the processor for even longer period of lifespan. i think he juz edited the 1st post. juz now he said his fren dowan his children use the pc to play games so want to downclock it.

QUOTE(PCcrazy @ Mar 19 2006, 10:39 PM) LOL, not a brilliant action in my opinion. Games significantly dependable on graphic card, just get a rubbish card and plugged it in. yup..agreed....not a nice idea to downclock the processor. maybe he should downclock the graphic card..hehe or maybe juz let them use winxp guest account and limit their usage.
