I have backups. It's not O/C'd to an insane degree. I just like to do it. I have a 3.2 O/C to 3.6, 220FSB. Sometimes I forget and leave it at 230FSB, which is stable in Windows but not in Linux. If I boot at 230 and do something rude like kill X while a bunch of heavy duty work is going on, sometimes I'll get corruption in /var/log or /tmp. Sometimes that happens anyway, but if I back down the O/C a skotch it doesn't seem to happen quite as frequently. It never seems to occur on my data partitions, only on the system partition in system-type areas. At 220FSB Kernel compile goes 14% faster. That's about a minute faster. 14% isn't anything to sneeze at during 3-hour long CPU intensive things like transcoding; or just day-to-day things. People usually say "just buy a dual-CPU." Eh. Whatcha gonna do. Lots of things would be nice. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
