I have been doing alot of researching on a few processors that are in my budget range and I am going to go with the one listed in the title (AMD Phenom II X3 720 Black Edition for you lazy people!) but overclocking seems a rather redundant feature on these processors from what I have seen as they pretty much produce the same results regardless of overclock.
Now when I talk about results I mean frame rate. I am a gamer and from what I have seen the overclock of this range of processor is a futile effort, it boosts a score in vantage and all those benchmark programs but in the world of current gaming where everything is far from optimized let alone used there is no real change.
So my point of posting was to get some feedback on what I have just said, if this is a generally accepted view or if this community has experienced differently or read from sources saying it does improve gaming frame rates.
