So first of all here's my setup,
E8400 @ 3.6Ghz 400MHz x 9 1.32v
EVGA 780i
2 x 2Gb Kingston HyperX DDR2 800 CL5
2 x Asus 9600GT 512 unclocked
I'm still a newbie in overclocking, in fact, the only reason I started overclocking was because the bottleneck issue I've had with my stock E8400 when playing games. Now at 3.6Ghz I've gained a noticeable FPS and performance, 3Dmark06 score 15969.
I'm wondering how could I tell at what speed I should run my CPU that's best match my 2 9600GTs performance? I know if I want to push my CPU further I most likely will have to overclock my ram as well. I'm also looking at upgrading to the new i7 but still I want to try get the most out of my current system
Sorry but I've got another question, if I do end up getting a new i7 system, is it worth running SLI? Say 2 x GTX285? Or is it better to just get a single GTX295?
Thank you in advance.
