Does NF7 overclock as good as NF7-S?

[beatnic]

Does the NF7 overclocks as good as the NF7-S? I read at abit-usa that the NF7-S has the '5bit FID (Frequency ID)' override technology but the NF7 doesn't.. with buying the regular NF7 I could save some cash considering the price diff is about £15!

Cheers all ;)

I want to know too :D

NF7 is pretty cheap here, $104. NF7-S $120.

hmm.. no answer?

Don't know BUT I don't think the NF7 has the soundstorm and SATA on it which imho is definately worth the £15 :)

[beatnic]

i'm sorry but i dont think im gonna use the soundstorm.. sata is nice coz it comes with the adapter.. but £15 is a lot.. i can save a couple of quids and get other stuff like NB cooling..

i just want to know the overclockability..

It's the same chipset and same layout so there should be no diff between the two. It's just that the nf7s has more option

thx antipop.. i would like to hear opinions from NF7 owners :)

What that means is, the NF7-S multiplier adjustments work, and on the NF7 they don't.

I personally have a NF7 (non S)... The only difference between them is the sound and the serial ata...and the firewire.
