Should work fine:
-if OC'ed by multiplier, FSB remains the same so no problem whatsoever for pci cards.
-if OC'ed by raising FSB, pci bus would go 33-> 37MHz which is still within Pulsar's specs.

Asus and Abit intel chipset p4 motherboards allow overclocking the FSB while locking the PCI and AGP bus to the proper speed.

... as do SiS chipsets:) Running on an MSI 645DX motherboard with Pulsar, works fine. P4 1.6@2.16

What does FSB benefit,or what is its actual function?
Thx!

FSB is the bus between CPU and memory. The faster it is, the quicker the results are pushed back form the CPU to the memory and vice versa. It is not necessary to have the same speed as the CPU. For a normal operation the CPU uses 3 or more cycles. So a ratio of 1:4 is pretty good, like a Northwood 2.x with 533 RDRAM. So there are not too many waiting cycles. But the effect is not so dramatic, compared to 266 DDR, ratio 1:8, it is about 12% (from german mag c/t).
Happy pulsaring

I can´t leave this thread wuthout asking...
you really need that "extra power", even taking the risk of not being shure about stability?

I'm thinking the same thing here... Why risk stability for a couple more cycles? I donno, maybe you need this small little extra to just sqeeze another vsti into the mix?
I know that i will never over'clock my daw, maybe a game machine that's already too slow for a particular game, then even... well, that was my tought, anyway, it's up to you!
