Intel plans to deliberately limit Sandy Bridge overclocking

[saaya]

oh its public now...


igp can be adjusted in /2 bclock steps... ok...
memory can be adjusted in bclock x2.66 steps... uhmmm ok...?

didnt you say it was really difficult to add a multiplier or divider to amplify bclock increments? yet somehow intel miraculously did both, it just didnt work for cpu bclock for SOME reason

100 bclock
x2.66 x10 1066
x2.66 x11 1333
x2.66 x12 1600
x2.66 x13 1866 (omg, t3h return of 1866! )
x2.66 x14 2133
x2.66 x15 2400
x2.66 x16 2666

man saaya do you ever stop? its getting reallllly old and reallllly annoying.

then what are you doing here reading my posts?
theres an ignore button
hmmm i wonder if vb finally added a feature to block quotes of the blocked member by a third party as well

I've always wondered...I dunno if you can share since it might fall under the "how teams are put together" umbrella that you mentioned earlier, but who decides what team works on which tock/tick..Is just assigned based on their strengths and weakness's?

hah, im curious about that too... would be hilarious if its according to some intel tradition like a random number generator based on one of intels first microcontrollers

And or those who say you are a consumer and dont care about Dr.Who's point about the beauty and complexity behind SB, then why the heck are you posting on an OC forum? You're not JUST a consumer - don't kid yourself.

so enthusiasts are not consumers? i see what you mean but 90% of overclockers have no idea of cpu arch, bios coding, fabbing etc... why? cause it doesnt matter for what we do...
