Hey all,
I've got a queston about the CPU multiplier.
I've been reading alot about it since im overclocking my pc for a practical project. I know what it's role is concerning overclocking.
But I was wonder how this multiplier exactly works.
I always compare the FSB with a funnel.
If you got a certain flow, which is stronger then the funnel can digest, the flow wil save up.
The same happens with the FSB. If the FSB isnt high enough, the cycles per second can't get through the FSB and will save up. that is the wait time you have while working on your computer.(ofcourse more things will influence this)
But when the cycles get through the FSB they reach the Multiplier. But how does this multiplier work?
The FSB is the limit you have(same as the funnel) so you have to raise the FSB to create more speed.
But since you can multiply the FSB with for example 20. you get a higher CPU frequenty. Anyone got a clue how this multiplier works?
Hopefully I made clear what I meant since my english ain't on a sufficient level as I wanted it.
Thanks for your responds
