Hi guys,

I was just curious. When overclocking a current P4 cpu is the pci bus out of spec? Do the P4 boards have PCI lock like the aMD boards? I was just curious because a lot of users get P4 2.4ghz chips and overclock them to 3.0ghz. I used to do this as well with my old Athlons and Celerons but now I have a 1700+ and a 8RDA+ that has PCI lock so it is easier and more stable for me.

the SIS boards don't have PCI lock. other than that, the intel chipsets do have PCI lock
