OC X2 3800+

[Matas]

Could I expect better OC results lowering multiplier to 9x and cranking up the FSB, instead of 10x multiplier and lower FSB at the same voltage?

Depends on what the weakest link is... your board or your CPU.

If you have a good cpu, but bad board, go for the low multiplier high FSB... And vice versa for the other situation.


All in all, if you're running 277 FSB * 9 or 250 FSB * 10... You're going to get the exact same performance .

I have bad cpu, but great MB. Do you realy think that I should go with high multiplier low FSB in this case?

It really shouldn't matter unless you can get yor RAM or CPU to run at a higher freq...
