My experience with amd over-clocking so far has been limited to bumping to the cpu/cpu nb multis and tweaking voltages (limiting me to 3.7). Is the ht link tried to the nb/sb voltages and when would you go about raising those when ocking an amd rig?

I realise the gain is tiny, but it seems when ever the ht link rises above 2000 i get linx errors :(
 
The HT link is the connection between the CPU and the chipset/mainboard. You will see zero gains from overclocking the HT link - always keep it at 2000Mhz. ;)
 
Well that's basically all I can find on it. Amd spec says it should be happy up to 2600 (don't see the point tbh).

Once I shift the fsb though the ht link won't be 2000, it's either be higher or lower and I obviously won't want to lower it :P My question stands, do either the nb or sb voltages effect it and (whether they do or dont) when should you start raising them when ocking?
