Hi guys.
I´m looking for information about overclocking Haswell K Cores. Last PC I bought had an Intel Core 2 Duo Wolfdale and, from the overclocking perspective, it was all about incrementing the FSB (front side bus) speed and having it sync 1:1 to the DDR SDRam speed. The core multiplier was really a secondary thing. It was better to have a CPU clock speed of 333 Mhz and lower multiplier than a CPU clock speed of 266 and higher multiplier because the point in those days was trying to bypass the FSB bottleneck in terms of performance.
Looking now at Haswell K core overcloking, everybody talks about incrementing the core multiplier, but the CPU Clock speed has disappeared from the equation. By the way, I can only think that a CPU clock speed of 100 Mhz is incredible low compare to the 400 Mhz clock speed that older Intel Core 2 Duo and Quad processors could achieve.
Can you give any clues? Isn´t the Clock Speed in Haswell K cores important in terms of performance?
