  • help please

    Hi,i would like to join your SETI team but gotta get some help first as my average crunch times are about 8.5 hours for each wu,so first off fsb does the speed of your ram dictate how high the fsb can go?(as i can only get my fsb to 103mhz)thanks for any help

    my system:
    Athlon 700mhz (not o/c)
    Abit ka7 (with latest Via drivers)
    128mb ram (100mhz)
    Matrox G400 max 32mb

        Hi Wintz - you can start by checking the latest version of Guru's optimisation guide on the dedicated SETI@MURC website. You should be getting better times than that anyway, even at 700 I'd think!

        As for the FSB question, there could be several limiting factors, the CPU, the cooling, the motherboard or, indeed, the RAM. If possible, try switching components with someone else who is trying to overclock - that way you might be able to find if your RAM is holding you back.

        Paul.
