I knew you didn't mean OC period, but you didn't say like "Nforce sucks compared to <blah> chipsets", you just said they suck at OCing which is more of an opinion than fact.You can overclock just fine, but reducing the mutipliers of the FSB and on AMD CPU mutipliers. Sorry to imply that you could overclock period.
Yeah that's what I do. 236x10.5 currently, stock speed is 1.8GHz that makes it 2.478GHz with a 472MHz FSBbut when I mean overclocking I mean not changing anything but the FSB speed.
This CPU can hit 2.7GHz but I think 2.6GHz with a 470 approx. FSB is about the most stable it can get.
Dale - Generally there is an option in regards to RAM that'll let you choose 'User Define, By SPD, Expert' something like that, the By SPD should make it follow the CPU's HTT, but the main purpose of the SPD is that the RAM has a little 'BIOS' on it if you will that tells it at what timings to run depending on the MHz. That's why when you underclock RAM you'll see timings change on their own, thats the SPD at work
