i'd like to see Wusy do a Video Overclocking guide.

and to talk about why the 975XBX is on his list of
good stable OC-able motherboards, but is not on
a lot of other lists.
 



Maybe I'm being a jerk...but in our society we always want people to break it down to our level but maybe you should attempt to bring yourself up to his? You've got a good start at realizing your deficiency, which happens to be understanding the language that is used.

However, VDIMM is VDIMM, VCore is VCore...these aren't acronyms. Knowing the definition of a word and regurgitating that information doesn't mean you understand anything about it. It sounds like you lack critical thinking surrounding BIOS and computer components. Therefore I would suggest reading and educating yourself instead of assuming one single guide will make it all better.

One person might use the term PSU for a power supply; doesn't mean another person will use terms or semantics when referring to technology. I use that example as I went to three computer shops in Boise, ID (I'm in air force) and couldn't believe that they had never heard of a PSU or 'power supply'. They knew what it was but it really messed up the conversation since we didn't have a common vernacular.

Instead of changing WUSY's guide perhaps you should try to define the vocabulary that seems so alien. Then, maybe his guide will make sense. Bring yourself up to his level.
 




Because the experienced crowd doesn't always have the time to research the ins and outs of every motherboard, processor, manufacturing node, etc.

Sometimes we give each other a helping hand. Majority of the enthusiast crowd is much like a savant...sometimes they're amazing when it comes to networking and suck at everything else, perhaps they know lots about software or a particular OS, but suck at programming. We all have our caveats and we form these communities to spread knowledge and give each other a helping hand.

This website and forums weren't put together to spoon feed people who never intended on educating themselves but still wanted the leverage of the knowledge we maintain.
