    Noob Concepts: 1:1 Ram Ratio.. What does this mean?

    Thanks alot, most of the confusion was because people put out alot of information and didn't explain why it mattered. I heard the Q9550 is a difficult chip to overclock... Hope I learn a ton!

    Noob Concepts: 1:1 Ram Ratio.. What does this mean?

    Ok so the 1:1 ratio is ideal for better performance.. So leme get this straight... When I have a FSB of 400, and the ram is DDR2 800MHz.. That is 1:1. When I overclock to an FSB of 450 for example.. and the ram is now 901MHz. The ratio is still 1 to 1.... So when does this become a...

    Noob Concepts: 1:1 Ram Ratio.. What does this mean?

    Ok so I've been reading alot of overclocking guides on the web and I keep hearing this 1:1 ram cpu ratio thing come up.. Here is the computer I'm learning overclocking on: Intel C2Q Q9550 2.8ghz. Corsair DDR2 800ghz Ram other stuff Now what confuses me is the ram frequency and FSB frequency...

    Is there a style of cooling that is better than water but still practical?

    Yeah I found a dew point calculator on the web, very very useful. I'm trying to see if there are other ways to combat water condensation. This is surely a challenge. :D

    Thank you for a good post. Very interesting what you did here. How did you not get condensation though?

    Is there a style of cooling that is better than water but still practical?

    It isn't really reasonable to use AC and refrigerators as examples. An AC has to cool an entire house or room, and a fridge/freezer same thing. All we are trying to do is cool a little bit of water.

    Chilled water cooling?

    Gee, I don't know what that would possibly accomplish.

    It is just for fun. The fact that it just works is more impressive than its performance.

    Chilled water cooling?

    Doesn't have to be a fridge, just anything that can cool water. TBH the idea of what cools the water is not important.

    Chilled water cooling?

    Compared to normal water cooling. How much will having cold water help?

    I'm not really trying to do anything, atleast not now. I'm just interested in ideas and having a discussion.
