what does a 2500k idle at? (is it same regardless of OC)?

[snadge]

ive been told that the 2500k idles at 1.6Ghz regardless if its overlocked or not...

is this right? as it will have an effect on an overclocking decision we are making.


thanks

unless you turn speedstep off i think it drops the multi to X16, so if you change the FSB then it will be that x16 (default FSB is 100)

thanks - my dad will be pleased to know

so we can overclock to 4,4Ghz then when he just browsing the web it will b 1.6Ghz and 4.4Ghz when using FSX?
