Build Your Own No-Compromises $1,500 PC
Posted 06/28/2008 at 03:43:57pm
I built this PC with the exception of using a ABIT IP35Pro XE motherboard(I wanted SPDIF out), Antec 900 case and I didn't install the sound card. It only cost me $1200 with the rebates I received. It is a very nice beast. My question is why did they overclock by only increasing the FSB. Why didn't they increase the multiplier? I was very conservative and set my FSB at 300. I'm running at 2.7GBs. In another MaxPC article on overclocking they increased the multiplier also?
