Which is more important to the OC? The FSB value or the Multi?

[EvilSponge]

Hey people,

Here is my deal I can run my crrent rig in to ways :

1) FSB: 195 and Multi 12

AMD Athlon XP 2100+ Rev B @ 2154.88Mhz

2) FSB: 192 and multi 12

AMD Athlon XP 2100+ Rev B @ 2315.88Mhz

Also a Vcore question for my chip what is the max Vcore I should be running to help acheive best stability?

Any help provided would be greatly appreciated

Oh yeah my mother board is an Epox 8RDA+

i'd go for higher FSB as you will have more bandwidth
Hoever, if the difference is small(i.e. 2 -5 mhz), i'd go for the higher speed

this does not make sense...?


1) FSB: 195 and Multi 12 (must be 11...?)

AMD Athlon XP 2100+ Rev B @ 2154.88Mhz

2) FSB: 192 and multi 12 (this is ok...)

AMD Athlon XP 2100+ Rev B @ 2315.88Mhz


Also sounds like either your ram or your VDD is holding you back from making 200+ fsb...? And the higher Mhz would be better as the fsb diff is not enough...

higher fsb is better
but usually a combo works better

id go for #2

it depends on the app (game?) you are running. Ive seen framerates that get better with more clock than more bandwidth.
