It is still funny how this HT thing of 800MHz or 1000 MHz or or 1600MHz or 2000MHz is confusing.. and overrated.

90% of posters seems to not understand the way the HT link is tied to the system and how it affect performance.

So, here is a nice article with benchmark. read it, then cry.. you fell for marketing trick..you knowledgeable posters...Study of overclocking techniques and HT link benchmarks..
