Overclocking Question

Post by two slow »

How do you know what component is limiting you when you are overclocking? Do different parts cause a different error?

What's Under The Hood?

Would help to know what you're OC'ing and what your setup is. I've hit a wall w/my XP1800+ at a 143 mhz FSB. But it's because of the ram I'm using. I'm usins PC 133. If I was using PC2100 (which I plan on buying some of soon) then I could probably push a much higher FSB. I've never had the others hold me back. But they are possibilites.. eGo

How are you going to manage to fit DDR in a SDRAM board?

I think he's using the ECS K7S5A which takes either DDR or SDR ram...
