Also, all things being equal, a cpu running with a higher FSB will run a bit hotter than a cpu running the same clock speed but with a lower FSB.
No need to get your panties in a bunch. I was just speaking from my personal experiences.Originally posted by mwarps
Would you care to do the math to back that up, since you're wrong?
The Northbridge will run hotter, yes. The CPU will not.
Semiconductor physics lesson later if you kids behave.

Wouldn't upping the FSB fry the PCI and/or AGP slots? And on newer mobos with locked PCI and AGP bus speeds, wouldn't it still overclock the memory when upping the FSB? Since the memory speed is based on the FSB:Memory ratio?![]()
I'm feeling nerdy today.![]()

It is better to achive the max in FSB with a low multiplyer, than lower the FSB and Raise the multiplyer untill the over all speed evans out. That will help you achive the best overall OC. The FSB is used for how fast the RAM is communating with the rest of the compter and it is inportant to have that high so that alot of information can go thought the bus to get to the CPU, the more info that can get to the CPU the more work can get done over the long hall.

the FSB on the AMD64 line is on the cpu die so it WILL get hot in that case
That is a different discussion.Originally posted by Terminus

For best results, OC the CPU first, find the max, then keep it around that speed by lowering multi and upping the FSB until you find the max.Originally posted by Matt Welke
So, in the end, a FSB increase is more efficient than a multiplier increase. Just don't bring the FSB too high, or you'll go too high for the memory to handle.

There is no FBS on the K8 line of CPUs....rather a HyperTransport link. Read the FAQ about it.
Apparently we need to address the subject of this thread in a FAQ or something, because many of you are wrong or miss informed. A good job goes out to cbakey for his description in simple terms.
mwarps: I think you need to do that semiconductor physics class soon, nothing too hard, they are not EEs.![]()
O and you cant post anymore, as you are 1337![]()
