Guys, any way to overclock the dual core i series?
-
I believe you can overclock anything, but why would you want to? They are pretty fast to begin with.

There is no "too fast"

The cpu is by far the largest bottleneck when encoding a video, and thats the one task I really need speed for.
I just got a HD camcorder finally too. -

Most of my videos of the late are just fraps recordings and I dont need to edit them I just splice them together with avisynth scrips and encode them with x264.exe and neroaacenc.exe then toss them on youtube.
When I was really into editing I would also do cool special effects on Adobe After Effects. -
wanted to try vegas pro but i think it isnt multithreaded yet.
after effects is just too expensive but probably the most versitile -

Vegas is multi threaded, always has been as far as I know, or it probably just depends on the codec/encoder you use.
The new version vegas pro 9 also has a 64bit exe file so thats good so it can take advantage of more than 4gb of ram. The G73 laptop has 8GB of RAM on it.
Gpu encoding is nice for speed, but limited to certain codecs. Id not sacrifice the quality/versatility of my codec just for gpu accelerated encoding. x264.exe is the best video encoder periodwhich of course is the H264 codec.

although the 3870 is not mentioned in their website it should work.
im not sure if adobe or sony vegas has support for this.
at any rate power director has been the fastest for me, but thats with an intel/nvidia combination though.

Yes let's get back on topic people. I'd really hate to start deleting posts or even closing the thread.

I need more cpu power for bad company 2. That's basically it. I can't stand playing games when I drop to 30 fps...

Can't u turn off turbo boost using ur BIOS? But why must u disable it? it will reduce the power efficiency of ur CPU..

fail... that's why i'd get a clevo or alienware... always has BIOS options... but i just got another idea... you can disable turbo by uninstalling the intel turbo driver....AHAA!!
Why the Core i7 may not be a good enthusiast processor
