Neoseeker look at how HyperTransport speed, CPU Bus Speed, memory speed and overall clock speed affect performance on the Athlon64.
Raising the LDT bus speed and dropping the multiplier so as to maintain a close-to-stock clock speed on the CPU nearly nothing for overall system performance. In synthetic CPU tests, CPU performance actually dropped a tiny bit, and memory bandwidth performance went up a non-impressive 3.2%. LDT and memory bus speeds aren't all that they're cracked up to be if your CPU is not there to eat up the extra headroom given.Read more
