Hi all! Long time AMD overclocker first time Intel Overclocker! I just sold my old machine in my sig, and I was quite proud of that overclock, but now I'm looking for a new machine.
Right now, in my newegg cart I have
CPU : $220 Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 Conroe 2.13GHz 2M shared L2 Cache LGA 775
Mobo : $150 ASUS P5B-E LGA 775 Intel P965
Video Card : $245 SAPPHIRE 100186L Radeon X1950XT 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 VIVO PCI Express x16 VIVO HDCP
Ram : not sure but thinking $211 CORSAIR XMS2 1GB (2 x 512MB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit
My question is (since I'm not 100% sure about overclocking this cpu/mobo/ram combo) when I bought my last AMD system I made a mistake of not getting faster ram then the mobo supported and I had to turn down the ram when I Raised the cpu speed. Is there any way for intel mobos to run 1:1 or closer to it if I was to get the DDR2 1066 instead of DDR2 800?
Thank you.
(also is there a place where I can find a overclocking calculator for intel? When overclocking the AMD I had tons of equations I used to predict cpu/ram speed and such.)
:
Could someone post their stats on their overclock so I Can start to get an idea of what variables are in an intel system? Your FSB, volt, memory speed, and so on ....
Thanks again.
