Does anyone know about overclocking?
I plan to boost my CPU’s performance, but because the motherboard limits certain settings, I can only adjust the CPU FSB, Memory Ratio, Memory Voltage, and Timings. Here are some of my concerns:
What does FSB/Memory Ratio mean? It was initially set to Auto with Memory Frequency at 667MHz, but after changing it to 1:1 it dropped to 400MHz. I understand it stands for FSB:Memory Frequency (200:200), but is it safe to keep it at 1:1 during overclocking? Or should I adjust it differently?
What are the differences between each Memory Ratio? (1:1, 1:1.33, 1:1.66). Are there specific situations where one works better than another?
If I set it to 1:1 (200:200), can I safely overclock my CPU’s FSB until the memory frequency reaches 667MHz? Could this affect any components in my PC?
What is the purpose of Memory Voltage? Changing it to 1:1 would lower the memory speed and reduce the need for high voltage.
And what role does Memory Timing play in overclocking?
