Hello every1 (my first post here ) okies here goes this is my current configuration pentium (D) dual core 2.66 (533 fsb) 1Gb x 2 Transcend Ddr2 ram (800 Mhz) Intel 965 Mobo (1066 FSB max) (or is it 1033) 160 gb hdd sata 80 gb hdd Sony Dvd-RW xfx geforce 8800 gt alpha dog editon (512mb) Vip 400W Psu okies i know many of the things look mismatched (probably cause i bough them seperately,as per availability of cash ) wht i wanna know is, 1) how would you rate this system? (i mostly use this comp for playing games and watching movies) 2) Wht all do you think i need to change?? and accorsing to you what should i think about upgrading first? 3) Would it be possible to overclock the mobo to get faster fsb (seeing as how all core2duo are 1333mhz )
Welcome to afterdawn! Nice rig all good except ur PSU could be upgraded to a 500W or something around that other than that its all good u cannot overclock a motherboard. u would need to delve into Pin Hacking to change the multiplier on your Processor but thats too risky u can however overclock ur processor for better speed etc
Oh i c.. i was under the impression that the way a processor can be Over clocked the motherboard can also be over clocked to run at higher fsb i think i did read somewhere that it can be done... could some1 please tell me for a fact that it cant be done??
