i5-750 fsb?

[slick2010]

what is the fsb speed on ths cpu?

 

[GLeeM]

It doesn't have a fsb.

Try rephrasing the question.

Did you want to know what the stock BCLK and multiplier are? At turbo speed or non-turbo?

You could just give him the answers without trying to belittle the question...

BCLCK is analagous as far as overclocking goes to FSB and = 133 MHz default

20x133 (2.66 GHz)

I'm not sure why Intel stuck a 2.6 GHz label on this CPU. Mine has never run at that, even stock. From 1.1 GHz to 3.2 GHz 2 cores with turbo, 2.8 GHz across all four cores stock.

is this a good cpu for gaming?

 

[Tsavo]

Yep.

Gotta love turbo. I get 3.8ghz with a 160 bclk @ stock voltage for 1 or 2 thread loads. I'm not bragging at all since that's not much of an overclock, but moving from 1.4ghz to 3.8ghz as needed while running nearly dead silent is just cool. Just need that a next gen ssd and I'll stop thinking about upgrades for awhile.

Which voltages did you set in BIOS, and what did you set them to?

He said stock voltage. Mine will run the same too.

So when you say stock, you mean you left everything set to Auto? My understanding was that at Auto, if the board needed to supply more V it would do so. In which case you're not running at stock any more, the motherboard has decided how much V to supply. Is that incorrect?

I'm not sure the board is that intelligent. On my Gigabyte AMD 780/790 mobos, auto is always overvolting, even at stock speeds. However, my experience may not translate to other boards.

Eight.89 and three Lth picovolts.

when left on auto my Gigabyte board had my core voltage at 1.34 in bios when all it really needed was 1.26 for 3.8. it also had my PLL at 1.65 which I lowered to 1.5.
