    Also: Increasing the volts+clocks on your CPU and RAM.

    If you're already prepared to build a new one when it dies, why not have it run faster until then?

    Though I'd try to time its failure until just after the next gen of CPUs/GPUs drops later this year and prices go down.

    The new stuff will need a new CPUs will need a new mobo and RAM anyway.

        It has frequency, but AFAIK the benefits of overclocking RAM aren't nearly as noticeable as overclocking CPU.

        It has timings and frequency. Timings relate to latency, frequency is like bandwidth.

        Typically you need to increase latency to increase bandwidth, but in general both can be made faster if you overvolt a little, but it decreases the lifespan.

        If you have 64+ gigs of ram, ramdisk software can outperform even the fastest SSD for specific applications.

      If the new stuff needs a new mobo, doesn't it make more sense to not overclock and wait for CPU upgrades from the last gen once people switch and get more of the older high-end processors on the market?

        Ultimately how aggressively you want to increase the voltage (and clocks it permits) is a question of how tolerable current performance is vs how much you can afford to lose the affected components.

        When prices to replace components decrease, the pressure to use a smaller voltage increase decreases.

    o damn isnt that the fascism anime

    neat :caught-in-4che:

      I remember the discussion but not whether people ended up agreeing that it's antisemetic or not. I don't have anything to add to that conversation but would happily delete the post

      I would describe it as like if a nazi was trying (and I guess succeeded at the making a story part it is IMO an extremely good show) to make a story that wasn’t fascist.
