Does Win2k help overclocking?

13 April 2000, 16:04

I saw an interesting thread over on AMDZone that suggests that the stability of Win2k actually allows for a little more overclocking. I haven't bought my Win2k yet, but was wondering if any of you have noticed improved overclocking ability after upgrading.

No. In fact, Win2k is pickier about O/C than Win9x is, due to making more stringent demands on the hardware.
