should a line be drawn between the two.. ??
some inpractical examples.. spending a fortune on fancy cooling to gain an extra 100mhz..
removing heatsinks and heatsink lapping..
volt modding hardware..
trying very hard to get temps lower than they need to be..
some practical something for nothing examples..
useing simple software to overclock your grafix card.. no extra money needed..
simple cpu speed increases with perhaps a cheapo aftermarket air cooler or just the stock cooler..
i kinda fit in the something for nothing practical camp.. my cpu runs a nice 24/7 4 gig with just a cheap artic pro cooler sat on top.. i see no real point in heatsink lapping.. water cooling and all the exotic stuff for an extra unnoticeable 200mhz or so or to get my temps lower than they need to be..
tweaking for the sake of tweaking or simple practical tweaking for a cheap performance increase.. does a line need to be drawn between the two..???
where do the majority sit.. ??
