My first overclock!


Having friends who are hardware geeks is good at some time , but you usually have to try rather hard to win their respect.Its usually easy for a girl to get a geek's attention! but for a geek to say "Now that's cool " to another geek is much, much harder.Now despite me having speakers which blow the socks of anything else, I hadnt quite, whats the word....*OVERCLOCKED* anything.But today , I blog before you, a different man, someone foolhardy enough to throw caution to the winds, and run his device at *drum roll*....not 10%, not 50%....but a whole 100% (yeah thats right!..TWICE ) as fast as it should.technically, it will go upto 8 times , but no one is THAT greedy.The point was,my new mouse , running at 1600 dpi, comes up with a lot more finfo than, say a 400dpi mouse. and for all that info to get across, you need more than the default 125 Hz set for usb devices.Thus it was doubled to 250Hz. i dont want to increase it any more as it seems to be taking up more CPU.but at least there are no stability issues!Compared to a ps/2 running at 200Hz, it aint much, but remember, the PS/2 is an asynchronous connection, while usb is synced check out the screenshots
