Recommanded PCI-E Freq.

[El Jimben]

I've always had my PCI-E speed at 100MHz, not seen or read any good reason why it should be higher except some people got a 'slight' boost to their 3DMark scores.

Somebody should do a comparison so we can see the benefit.

I'm not sure how the PCI-E bus affects hard drives? I know that if you don't lock the PCI bus to 33MHz you can loose your disks etc but not PCI-E?

As I said a few posts up, the PCI frequency comes from the PCI-E frequency so if you overclock it too much, you'll bugger up your HD

I ran 120 for months and no problems but I turned it down to 105 or so and I cant see any difference so I cba turning it back up. I dont think the bus speed is a limiting factor for most if any gfx, someone with phase cooled gtx sli needs to test
