by the way, whats the gain percentage u get from overclocking an amd chip? im curious to know.

can someone teach me the basics of overclocking an amd proc.. noob here.

i wanna learn how to oc an amd proc. I will consider getting an amd rig to play with..

thanks joestar, will learn more and see if i can get a simple rig and join u fellas

by the way what r the procs here besides the BE that can do 3.4Ghz at least on air? And what board is good for overclocking?

F3 windsor but which one? is biostar board good enough?

wow, i like u
yeah i reviewed your offer, will let you know

@someone else
I do understand the architecture behind amd, and its tougher compared to intels FSB to overclock. The main reason i am learning this is to prepare myself for nehalem which follows QPI = modded Hypertransport. Just a transition to a new phase thats all

i would think in terms of bandwidth gains, amd is probably 60% of what intel can offer in overclocks

amd knocked the door to failure, with the phenoms to be honest. They had superb control on the dualcore market. I think even a DUal Core e2140 like mine, would be able to upstage an AMD easily.

For comparison, can someone here give a beating to a 20m 01s on 3.2Ghz of E2140? This is done on a 1:1 divider. Architecture is just far more superior thats all

e21 can live up with flying rams and good graphics card.. common guys we all know why amd gives better startups of programs. Thats due to the internal memory controller that AMD employs, which doesnt require latencies to occur due to the data being transfered to the North Bridge then to the ram. This reduces time for things like conversion or perhaps gaming. Simple. But when it comes to softwares which require heavy bandwidth of data transfer, intel definitely has an upper hand.

Oh well, if you guys did have the time check this 3dmark2006 comparison. Top in line, phenom x4 9850 on 3.3ghz and single card 3870

and the good old "crappy" e2140 on 2.4Ghz and single card 3870

http://www.hwbot.org/compare.do?resultId=749657

Now to compare on lets say SisoftSandra which is from my noob info, a memory benchmark

An e2140 on high clocks.

An Amd 9850 x4 on high clocks
http://www.hwbot.org/compare.do?resultId=730133

On this benchmark, phenom does have a high big edge over the DualCore due to its architecture, but remember, this is on quad core

cheers, no offence to the thread just some info thats all. Now back to my noobness to AMD

ish ish... already stopped talking about intel... wanna start it again. If performance is good, money is no big deal sista.. okok, u win you got my comparison all wrong anyways.

anyways got a question to ask, how does your divider principle work in AMD?

wow v8 and v10... imsmiko, loves big coolers LOL. I wonder how good will cooler master be this time

by the way how is the wattage of energy produced by lets say a 50% overclock on a phenom?
