FSB or multiplier

[TheGrandHooHa]

OK folks. I have a 1.2ghz T-bird on the way, which I plan to overclock slightly. Now (these numbers will be hypothetical), would it be better to go with a 9 x 145 (mult. times FSB) or a 10 x 133 to obtain a speed of around 1.333ghz. Again, these aren't exact numbers, but which is better for overclocking? Using the FSB as much as possible (which I'd assume would be the best) or using the multiplier?

TGHH

i would go with 133x10, as that is what my processor is normally clocked at (i have a 1.33ghz tbird)

145 FSB will give you better results, but your system needs to have the ballz to be able to handel it.

TunaBoo: Click the link in my profile to see the ball rating of my system... it should be able to handle it, but I don't know for sure. Check it out if you can.

It should have the ballz to do it on paper. However every system is diff. Some ram wont OC. Some moboss wont OC. Some PSU's are stubborn. You can never ever count on something overclocking, especially an entire system with all the variables.

Only time will tell if j00 have the ballZ.

Maybe I'll just overclock my DVD drive
