So you want to squeeze more performance from your hardware? Last month we had a three part tutorial on how to get the most out of your system, and in part three we used components for those on a tight budget. While some like to play it safe, we recognize that we should show both sides of the coin, so in this article we push the envelope a little.
We decided to take the high end components we use on our graphics test bench and see what they can do. During our journey down the fast lane, we will talk about alternative cooling methods and the risks involved in overclocking, and help you decide whether overclocking is for you.
