OC cpu question

[Hinrichisgod]

nah look - I oc'ed my cpu to 3.3 now...that was actually the wrong pic I sent to show my friend I oc'ed to 3.3. Here's what Im trying to point out to you all for my question....http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v407/Hinrichisgod/untitled.jpg

sorry for the confusion.

that is hilarious, all this over nothing
that is the range of that processing core... they make chips of it from 1.6-3.4 ghz, if im not mistaken

Be nice to aquire one for 1.6ghz of the price...

That, or since it says CPU and BIOS information it could be telling you the largest manufactured chip your BIOS can handle, that doesn't mean it can't handle faster than 3.4GHz speeds, but if you put in a 3.5GHz processor it wouldn't recognize it, so if you OC above it it'll probably say Unknown Processor unless you get a modded BIOS that'll recognize it.

it could be a round number, but as i said the FSB does fluctuate, and it has shown up in cpuid on 3 computers i have run it on, so apparently the laws of nature dont apply here in indiana, my apologies oh holy one

Yeah, it fluctuates enough for a 200-300MHz difference. What was I thinking when I said you were wrong......................

i said that in response to your statement about your p3's running not exactly at 1000mhz... not in response to the 3-3.3 gap, so perhaps you dont read previous information before responding.
