I have an intel celeron g530 but could i overclock it by raising FSB just like amd cpu's
 
I wanna build a new machine so which cpu should i go for.a4 3300(stock or overclocked),celeron 530,athlon x2 250.i'm not a hardcore gamer and but i does some photo's editing by photoshop cs6,watch hd video,net browsing,gaming upto 6 hours in a day at 1360*768 resolution.so which one should i buy.
 
Sandybridge has very, very limited fsb overclocking. On average it will get to 103-104mhz and thats it, so you are talking about an extra 24 x 3-4 mhz overclock.
 
can an g530 beat a4 3300 when it is oc upto 3.0ghz(a4 3300)...for general day tasks and casual gaming which one is better.can a g530 is good for casual gaming because i don't wanna spend more than $100 for cpu and mobo...
 
if you plan on using the integrated graphics, and gaming at all, just use the amd apu. The celeron will probably do a bit better on other tasks, but the amd apu just does so much better for gaming they dont compare.
 
what about application performance of an a4 3300 in win 7 when i'm using multiple app at same time...will this bottleneck when running multyple applications
