I was just wondering if anybody has used Asus AI Nos, AI Overclocking, and AI Booster extensively? Are these good overclocking utility or overclocking manually would be better? Any input would be great. ( I heard SYSTool is a better overclocking utility)

My second question, is CPU Frequency (found in Asus Bios) the same as FSB?

And lastly, can someone explain to me what in the world is Ratio CMOS settings (found under ASUS Bios--Advanced--Configure Advanced CPU Setting). Is this the multiplier?

Googled the questions and look in Rojaks Pot but came up with no definate answers. Any help would be great.

Overclocking manually is always better IMO.

yes the CPU Freq. setting is the FSB!
I think that ratio setting is the multi....what options do you have?


Which motherboard are you using?

I am using P5WD2 Premium.

I think I found the answer to "Ratio Cmos Setting" on Legits Review of P5WD2 Premium. There is the picture of the bios page which I was refering to. [img]http://www.legitreviews.com/images/revi ... screen.jpg[/img]

It has to be the multiplier, because I can't find it anywhere else in Bios.

Thanks.

I am using the AI on a P5P800SE board with a P-4 630 socket 775 3.0 gig overclocked 10 percent running at 3.3 rock stable I have oc'ed other ways in the past but by far this was the easiest.

Thanks for the reply. Since I have stock cooling, I think I will use AI overclocking feature so that it programs itself to overclock when it is needed. I just don't feel like buying another heatsink or watercooling kit. Too poor .
