This reflects the principle lines of frequencies that the manufacturer of the processor ( called depth ) allows himself .
Example: if a processor is perfectly stable at 3GHz, it will not be certified as being stable at 3GHz but at 2GHz. Why the difference ? Simply because the founder knows that you will naturally put your components in extremely restrictive ... (overheating due to the heatwave , with heaps of dust etc. ). It therefore allows a margin in frequency ( within a 1 GHz ).
NB 1 GHz = Gigahertz = 1 megahertz = 1 000 MHz 1000 = 10 ^ 9 Hertz (in case of difficulty , read our Glossary)
You should know that a full range of processors is based on only one or two processors. For example , the Core 2 Duo 4MB Cache E63xx , E64xx, E66xx, E67xx and X6800 are exactly the same : they are just running at different frequencies depending on the testing process kept secret by Intel. The foundry manufactures do so really only one core (heart of the processor) . According to the obtained stable frequencies but especially after the client request, it classifies all the cores produced in different frequency ranges.
We can therefore, in a CPU overclocking middle range, get exactly the same performance as the model high -end brand ( which costs nearly $ 1,000 often ). Yes , but you tell me if you overclock the high end , we happen to even higher frequencies True, but not so much different than that, after all , they all come out the same ' mold '.
What is the interest for me to overclock my CPU ?
It has already been said but it is good to highlight the benefits of Overclocking. When overclocking, it operated margins set by our friendly manufacturers. This allows us to save money by buying a less "powerful according to the manufacturer" to overclock later.
This can also be a way for you to continue using your current setup correctly yet a good year again. This delays and maturity of a future platform change. Finally, this is also a great way to learn more about the inner workings of your PC .
