Wow. I wasn't expecting this to be any more than another of the "ramblings of GROG" that pop up on these forums from time to time .

Thanks for pointing that out. I hadn't followed the overclocking threads that closely.

Grog, are you also using some of debernardis' "optimizations" scripts ?
Not as far as I know, IOW I don't think so. My setting is simple IMHO, all I have installed are the power kernel & modules themselves, my default is set to 850 & I use the Queen Beecon Overclock Control to switch frequencies when I want.
