Memory "unlinked or linked"

[pompalomp]

i'm just wondering if when you overclock the CPU and Memory, and you use the "unlinked feature" available on some motherboards, it allows you to overclock the memory and cpu seperatly, do you have to change it back to linked after you have finished overclocking and use a divider e.g. 1:2, 1:5
Thanks

Unlinked mode allows the CPU and RAM FSBs to be independent...Every motherboard I have ever seen this feature on has become massively unstable once you start even getting into the mild overclocks.

If it does work for you, then use it, if things become unstable then try the linked mode.

As with most overclocking, its all a game of "suck it and see"
