FSB unlinked or linked + what ratio?

[NachT]

ey,

I've always had my FSB unlinked so I can set the clock on my RAM and CPU separately. Is there any gain from linking them together to go of the same FSB?

And what would be best for gaming, linked in sync mode, 1:1 ratio, unlinked?


Or is there no differance?

makes a big difference when overclocking on the 680i. makes no difference on the P35.

My board is the 680i, should I be running linked 1:1 or unlinked?

Well, to run [1:1] you need PC8500 RAM just to run the CPU at stock, so you really want [LINKED] and [SYNC] which gives 2:1, but really it makes little difference.

ok, thanks bud

Just put it back to unlinked. and it's running at 5:6. So that's kool ?
