HardwareOC has posted a new overclocking article "How to get your B code Socket A to 320mhz FSB".



As soon as the 266mhz FSB AMD´s were announced I had to have one. Needless to say it was a 1Ghz core "C" code chip, which means unlike the "B" code chips with 200mhz front side bus, this one came from the factory with a "C" code 266mhz front side bus. I immediately put the chip on the nearest test bench and it was very apparent that AMD isn´t making any moves to change the architecture of these chips. This chip not only tested poorly compared to the typical 1ghz "B" chips we have been getting, but it topped out at the same 320-330fsb as the "B" code chips! The typical 1ghz cores we have been getting lately all run around 1266-1400 at a 133 memory bus speed, but this chip wouldn´t budge past 1266!
