32010 < 4008?

I'm wanting to clock my E4500 to 3.2, currently at 3.0, I ca achieve 3.2 using 400*8, but my NB is WAY too hot, and I currently have no funds to replace the cooling.

Would running it at 320*10 (changing the memory multi to keep at same speed) perform any worse?

Thanks

It would perform marginally worse due to lower FSB speed, but the difference would be minimal.

The main benefit of 400x8 would be being able to run your memory at 1:1 at 800mhz.

Tho as mentioned above, the advantage would be minimal. What is the NB temp at at 400x8?

i noticed that on my e2180, the higher fsb performed better in Superpi although it was only marginal. can i ask...if your system is stable then why dont you want to keep it at the higher fsb?

Hitting 72c after only a few minutes of orthos, that's with all fans on full aswell.

320*10 < 400*8?
