Anyways, its done I set it at 250 x 12 and got the mem up to 500mhz each. I ran 3dmark 06 pro with all the tests 3 times and got a lower score....does higher fsb and lower multiplier make the cpu go slower? I got 9818, last time got 9835 with 240x12.5 and higher with 200x15. Is there any thread with basic info on overclocking amd x2's?
