Should the HT frequency be half of that of the CPU frequency? So if my CPU is overclocked to 3.6ghz with an fsb of 234 and the multiplier 15. Should i give the HT a 8x multiplier so that it becomes 1920 mhz? Is it better to have the HT frequency as high as possible all the time? So give it a 9x multiplier? Or am i right to have it half the size of the cpu frequency more or less?

ht can be anything that allows it to run stably, it has been proven that decreasing the ht multiplier allows higher cpu overclocking , but anything in the vicinity of 2000mhz is good

i don't get it. Should the HT frequency be into some sort of proportion to the frequency of the cpu when it is overclocked . So would having the HT frequency being near to a half of the cpu frequency be a stable overclocking method? My current cpu frequency is 3ghz and the HT is 2ghz, should i leave that how it is then, when i overclock let it rise slightly above?

Does that mean that i can decrease the multiplier al the way down to 6x? I can get stable overclocks? If the HT frequency is 1400mhz for example?

the lower the ht goes, the higher ull be able to push core freq and maintain stabi did it with my 4400+, 2.3 stock, 2.85 with x5 multi, 3.0 at x4

so ht has nothing to do with literal performance of the computer? A higher HT frequency won't effect the performance of the CPU? in that case i might as well stick the HT frequency as low as possible even for stock frequency cpu?

there was a test done, i dont have a link, but they levied the ht freq from 200mhz to 1000mhz, there was no difference in performance, i was skeptical, still am, so dont drop ur htt to 200mhz, just decrease the multi by however much is necessary to keep it as near to 2000mhz as possible
