Hey Strider (anyone) question about HTT

[imported_neptune]

I saw on your spreadsheet that you used 1080? as a max stable constant. On the Anandtech overclocking article, I don't believe it stated where they positioned this... but it must not have been @ 5x, or that is one extreme HTT overclock. However, in their example, if they set it to 4x, this would mean that they were far underclocked here, is this correct? Is this ok? How much does this affect performance? Thanks!

A slightly lower HT Frequency does not affect performance much at all.

I think in their example, it is 870MHz, I mean it had to be with the FSB/RAM 1:1 @ 290, multiplier @ 9. I suppose it didn't affect them too much huh? Is this acceptable?
