Planning to overclock my PCIe bus (8x is really slow), but PCI is linked. Any tips to what threshold of "safe" speeds that are possible?
*
110/115.. depending on the performance of ure voltage of ure southbridge

linkboost was a failure because.. when pp overclock the set the voltages manual
but the bios needs to run at 125 and add voltage to the southbridge
hence when pp on overclock settings it can overvolt the southbride so the problems with the card/other pci devices

and i am sure u know u need to make sure ure Sata/IDe spectrum is disabled.


only prob is if u have any other PCI card... can go a bit gila
PS.. 680 users dont try if ure using xi-fi.

benefit... for some reason can overclock a bit more and sometimes stabilize a max overclock setting...
