Correct me if I'm wrong, but most CPUs have a locked multiplier meaning that to overclock you are speeding up the FSB which usually affects the PCI bus speed. <sarcasm>I see no connection with possible problems with PCI cards </sarcasm>
Seems you don't overclock much. The new boards have dividers for the PCI/AGP/PCIe/RAM buses so that they run at stock speeds. While my Celeron E1200 has a stock 800Mhz FSB(200Mhz quad pumped), it runs just fine at 1600(400Mhz quad pumped) with proper cooling. I have P3 boards that have dividers for the AGP/PCI buses so that you don't overclock them. I've overclocked almost every computer I've ever had and never lost a chip, board, or ram yet. Like I pointed out, it didn't matter if it was stock or not. And, it works just fine in my roommate's CeleronD 3.2(That's NOT overclocked) running XP. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
