Here are my questions:
1-If overclocking is a good thing, then why don't the sellers see the hardware at the higher ratings?
2-Is it possible to buy hardware at the higher clock speeds?

I am making no judgments here; I am just trying to figure this out. I keep comparing to the over-revving an engine, and yes, you can over-rev an engine for a while. But in the end, it bites you. Probably that analogy is in the too-stupid-to-comment category though?

I opened a PMR IBM had me try various dumps and whatnots, most of which didn't have much in it, because the PC was doing that hard reset.

Finally, IBM suggested slowing the overclocked memory, so I did. The problem disappeared.

I would never have guessed . . .

Hee hee! I love overclocking. I've got a 2.0GHz E2180 running at 3GHz, and 800MHz DDR2 RAM running at 900, and my machine flies. But getting there was a trick (and my high-end video card still won't run if I overclock).
