GlassJaw said:It doesn't slow my system down. I have an AMD Opteron 165 with 2gigs of RAM and an nVidia 7900GT. Trust me, it flies. I could overclock the heck out of it but it runs so well I haven't really had a need to.
I wouldn't actually suggest this. The problem ElvishBard described can occur with certain types of overclocking (usually dynamic overclocking, either because of installed software, or because of motherboard-based OC). I'm not a hardware guru though, so it may take some trial and error if you want to do it and find the point right before it starts locking you up.
