Overclocking
Posted: Sat Dec 08, 2007 5:52 pm
Any have experience with overcloaking?
Particular the ASUS / AI Booster?
I've never done overclocking on any machines, but the board / process combo I have, people are saying they are able to close to double the processing speed of the Core 2 Duo.
Right now, it's running @ 1.6 GHz
FSB is 800MHz
Using 200 x 6 modifer. (Default)
Some people have said they've gotten this MB/CPU to 3.6GHz, which is probably on the extreme end of things. I'd like to settle in around 2-2.4GHz, which is about where the cooling effectiveness would start to die off.
I assume it's using some speed stepping... 200 x 6 would equal 1.2GHz, while the 200 x 8 would equal the 1.6GHz.
Would I be looking at just setting 300 x 8 to get the 2.4GHz?
Also heard that you can overclock the PCIE also...
