Example:

This example shows you how to overclock the CPU Internal Clock, DDR frequency and FSB frequency for an Intel based mainboard. Note that the options that are supplied with your version of the BIOS may vary slightly. The example is for reference only.

Given:

Mainboard:

Intel based mainboard

CPU:

Pentium 4 (3.2 GHz, Fixed CPU Ratio = 16)

DDR:

DDR333 SDRAM

CPU Speed

= CPU Host Frequency * CPU Clock Ratio

FSB

= CPU Host Frequency * 4

DDR Speed

= CPU Host Frequency * DDR:CPU Ratio

AGP/PCI/SRC Speed Setting sets to “66.68, 33.34, 100.02”

Before Overclocking:

CPU Ratio (Fixed)

= 16

 

 

CPU Host Frequency

= 200

 

 

DDR:CPU Ratio

= 1.60

 

AGP/PCI/SRC Speed Setting show

= 66.68MHz/ 33.34 MHz/ 100.02 MHz

CPU Speed

= 200 * 16

= 3200 MHz

FSB

= 200

* 4

= 800 MHz

DDR Speeds

= 200

* 1.60

= 320

After Overclocking:

CPU Ratio (fixed)

= 16

 

 

 

CPU Host Frequency

= 220

 

 

 

DDR:CPU Ratio

= 1.60

 

 

AGP/PCI/SRC Speed Setting

= 66.68 MHz/ 33.34 MHz/ 100.02 MHz

CPU Speed

= 220 *

16

= 3520 MHz

FSB Speed

= 220

*

4

= 880 MHz

DDR Speeds

= 220

*

1.60

= 352
