 AMD is developing a software called "AMD overdrive". Just like nTune, it can adjust different system values. It's interesting that we find out the software can adjust multiple frequencies of different cores independently. http://www.expreview.com/news/hard/2007-10...13419d6698.htmlThis post has been edited by zeustronic: Nov 4 2007, 11:45 PM

pci-e speed = 0x. u dont need the 'speed' to display on the monitor meh?  it sure does makes oc'ing much more easy.

I've wanted to ask the question too.  However, it is great that we can see now that AMD does approve overclocking by creating this program. This post has been edited by sHawTY: Nov 4 2007, 09:44 AM

This definitely will make overclocking easier.

IMO, more liek to fully utilize target core doing some crunching, while put the rest in lowest speed/state possible ala CnQ for energy saving
nevertheless it does help when you have 3 awesome and a dud core for OC

Indicator of unlocked Phenoms?  Well, they could do that with cautious binning anyway.

sorry guys, individual overclocking is good? i'm not very sure about this matter.. thought when overclock should have 4 same clocks to ensure stability?
