Q: Ok, heres the deal. My brothers computer Celeron D 2.4Ghz MSI 865PE motherboard on one. The FSB on a cell. D is rated at 533MHz, but for some reason, the BIOS clock is 133MHz. The BIOS can I clock it up just 500MHz, but increasing the FSB also overclocks the speed AGP and PCI buses simultaneously. How do I get the FSB to 533MHz without any work on OCing everything to hell?
Edit: I fell like such a noob .
Best Answer: Yes,it's true. Nvidia found a clever way to make the 64mb GeForce Go 7400 perform better. But it depends very much on what it's tested with.
Keep in mind that laptops won't really compare to the highest-end gaming desktops- there just isn't enough room for the cooling that sort of hardware requires, so you're looking for something that gets good gaming performance- in the same ballpark as a nice gaming desktop. I'd probably choose the 2nd model- it's more likely that some game will really benefit from the extra 64mb of video memory than you'd see a real speed difference because of the 1mb L2 cache and slower FSB. In most cases, game performance is GPU-limited, not CPU-limited.
Also, check out the Dell Inspiron line – there are some decent video upgrade options available for those. And look at the site below, they have a number of gaming notebooks:

It's the same principle as say DDR memory for example. . .
DDR is Double data rate. So DDR 400 memory actually is only really running at 200 MHz but the data rate is doubled. So imagine a 200 MHz wave form on an osciloscope. If you can fit one read/write operation in on the rising part of the wave, you're operating the memory at normal 200 MHz speed. But what if you could fit 1 more operation on the falling side of the wave? Now you've just doubled the number of operations you can perform in one 200MHz cycle! So effectively it's like you're running 400 MHz kinda. So hence the name DDR. The memory frequency is really only 200MHz but you are doing 2 operations each cycle instead of 1. The FSB works on the same principal. So when you say 133 is the FSB, remember that you have to take the multiplier into account to find out the effective speed. The actual wave form of the FSB is just like looking at a 133MHz wave form. But if you can manage to cram 2 operations on the rising side and 2 operations on the falling side, it looks like you are going 4x as fast so hence 533MHz. The limitation comes when you reach the physical limits of how many operations you can perform in 1 cycle. . .The lower your frequency, the higher your multiplier can be. The higher your frequency (faster) the less time you have to get in those operations so at some point you are going to hit a limit and have to lower your multiplier. Maybe you can get in 4 operations during a 133MHz wave but increase that wave frequency to say 300MHz and you have a much smaller wave form in which to cram all those operations. Get it?

Re:people that cant multiply should stay out of the bios
Re:Zuh … doesn't 4×133=533? (ie, quad-pumped RAM, as opposed to traditional DDR)
Therefore … what's wrong?
