I do OC my cpu bud and have been OC'ing off and on for years, but I don't OC
my PCI bus anymore because I have seen first hand how it can corrupt data
and even cause cdroms to fail an install, not to mention failed cd burns. My
cpu is unlocked. I said you "takes your chances" didn't I? I'm just telling
you how it is. With the speed of todays hardware you aren't gaining much by
taking chances with OC'ing anyway so why bother? Unless you can't afford top
end equipment. But if you can afford those rounded cables that don't even
make much dif to airflow and are less reliable then I'm sure you can afford
the best there is. Do as you please.
