Spread Spectrum Question

[joeisabigdork]

Hey guys I just wanted to know what the Spread spectrum is and should I enable or disable it in the bios?

Hi,

It's used to *hopefully* reduce EMI problems. If you're not having EMI problems leave it disabled. Enabling it does (in a small way) I believe negatively affect performance.

Cheers,

And if you overclock, it'll definitely have a negative affect on your overclocking scalability/stability.
